Come Grow Old Along with me … the best is yet to be!
Ten guys, an annual trip, a weekly lunch together … how unique is that? I say “unbelievable”. Yes, unbelievable and rare … that 9 or 10 guys could be friends, remain friends and stay committed to sharing time and friendship together for almost four decades. Other than my marriage and family, there is nothing more important or significant in my life than this group.
As I’ve written before, for 35 years our annual adventure was a skiing trip. Last year, 2015 and this year, 2016, a more temperate climate called us to Scottsdale, Arizona for golf, hiking, touring, eating and relaxing.
2016 … a picture perfect trip.
