Bill,
Although you said look can be deceiving. I bet you are in a better shape than many of us including those half your age.

Is that a Prince Graphite Extender OS racquet? If so, I have not seen one of those in a while.

I wasn’t expecting anyone to recognize the type of racket I use. This big racket has served me well for about 25 years. At one time I had three of them but I’m down to one now. Guess I need to find a backup on ebay.

Over the last ten year I have been working with my five grands teaching (mostly introducing) them how to play tennis. The oldest is fourteen now and she got started at two years old. I was just starting with my youngest granddaughter when covid hit. She is now five and I’m hoping we can start back soon.

There is an old saying if I had known that I would live this long I would have taken better care of myself. When I was thirty my vision was to play until fifty. At fifty I started looking at sixty. At sixty I started looking at seventy. At seventy two I’m enjoying working with my grands and their skills. Thanks for the compliment but I’m definitely slowing.

Only one, which got damaged from floodwaters in our basement along with all photo albums. That hurts. We did a lot of dancehall gigs. Played the same kind bass guitar that the Beatles were using, Hoffner brand, sold it for cheap late sixties. Those use guitars are selling for $2500.00 now. They got like a violin body, pretty nice and very light.

I posted a picture of my sweetheart modeling her car on another thread. Thought I’d post it here, where it more probably belongs. I tried to get my wife to grab her dress like a model, but think we failed. Oh well, she is still pretty to my eyes.

Here is a pic of my son. I took this pic because I thought he looked uncannily like Clark Kent. Yes, my son is secretly Superman.
