An excellent and cleverly written piece. Thank you, Alan. I was thinking throughout the article that maybe you should’ve titled it Heart, Brain and Talking to your Body. If I have developed any older adult wisdom, it’s that I’ve been pretty good about accepting the fact my body is always giving me advice on what I can and cannot do, and I’ve been pretty good at listening. On the other hand, nine margaritas is

impressive.

Yup, sometimes your body just says, "Nope." And that is okay. As to the personal best with nine margaritas...that was some time ago.

Loved it, Alan! Reminds me a little bit of the time I rode my 750 Norton Commando from Vail on the way to Boulder on the last day of May. Got caught in a snowstorm at the top of the pass, parked my bike, and hitchiked to the ski lodge at Loveland to wait out the storm.

I can’t imagine riding a motorcycle on snow.
