that has about the same effect on me as the farrah poster did back in the day. I so want to end my days in a place like that. give me a couple hundred acres that backs up to some forestry ground and I think I would be fine living in a 1 room shack. spend my days hunting, fishing or just riding a horse through the mountains.

Its a beautiful area, MB. My son and his fiancé are in love with the place.

To clarify, I think your son and fiance live in Colorado? That's a picture of the Beartooth mountains in Montana, a place where I grew up and spent every summer fishing and backpacking. However, Colorado ain't too shabby either. :-)

When I was 12 I decided I was going to save my allowance and buy every single Elton John album. Started with Honky Chateau, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road was 2nd. By the time I was 14 I had them all. Man I miss the days of album art and liner notes. Not long after, I discovered punk and new wave and let Elton go. It wasn't until recently that I began to appreciate again just what a genius he was in those days.

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road was the second album I ever purchased. Can't remember if it was lawn mowing money or snow shoveling. Then I discovered Led Zeppelin, the Stones, and the Who.
I was and am still into Lego. "Bricks in Space" facebook group (rebuilding the space race in 1:110 scale) got me back into them. It a dangerous rabbit hole though. It can get quite expensive.
Past that, I enjoyed growing and selling sweetcorn and fishing and I'm doing all that stuff. I guess I never really grew up.
I do miss snowmobiling from my later teenage years. TN doesn't really have to many days that work for it.

Money well spent my brother...."Blue Moves" one of my all time favorites - Not well received by the critics, but this is the album where he went from pop star...to a composer... The song "Tonight", for my money it doesn't get much better from his entire catalogue. watch on Youtube with full orchestration. WOW .
Not the Farrah poster I had (heh..heh) but I also had this one...
