Meet Don

Today was our last day of work, but rather than focus on that (always hard to leave the lighthouse), Cary wrote about one of our neighbors in the RV park.

Meet Don, a retired dairy farmer from Fresno. He is one month older than my dad, born in April of 1920, making him 93! He fishes every day, works out on a rowing machine (you can see it propped up in the picture) and just bought the new 5th wheel. He told me he almost received his first traffic ticket last week. The officer saw that he was 93 and still had his CDL (commercial driving license). He got off with a warning to slow down. This 93-year-old youngster is quite the inspiration. I first met Don several years ago and we look forward to seeing each other again next year.
