[pct-l] Hiker Gifts

[cvano at tmail.com]

Isn't it funny how we view age.  The very young are measured in:
Months; 3 months,
Then half years; 3 and a half,
Then almosts; almost 16,
Then years; 21
Then somethings; 30 something.

Then we do it in reverse.
Somethings; 40 something,
Then years; 55,
Then almosts; almost 65,
Then half years; 72 and a half,
Then months; 83 and 7 months.

So birthdays are only important and actually celebrated for a few years 
in the average life.  The rest of the time is mearly noted in the 
passing of somethings, almosts, half years, and months.  So happy 
birthday Switchback.  Hope you have a few good months left.  C
