    I wouldn't go back to my 20's I was a broke college student, then an even more broke law school student, everything stressed me out, and I was a perfectionist. I didn't appreciate life.

    Now, I'm thrilled just to stand on a surf board, at work while everyone is bitching about how hard their job is, I smile and give them a "why you're lucky to be here" fact and help them see the positive side.

    Life is awesome! If it gets better than today, fuck I'm the luckiest person I know!

    My 20's were awesome. I had a great job. A ton of friends. I had a bunch of money in the bank. I lived at home for very cheap. I came and went as I wanted. Was at the river 2 or 3 weekends out of the month. Had a cool truck and boat. Always had a chick a phone call away. It was good times for sure.

    The 20's were good. The first half of them I partied hard and banged anything walked. I met Mrs. Daytona at 23 and settled down a little and bought my first house at 25. The 30's were great. I got married at 30 and by 35 I was a millionaire (short lived). Mrs. D and I pretty much bought and did everything we wanted to and were still young enough to really enjoy it. 39-40 sucked ass!!! Within the course of a year I lost my business, one of my best friends, my dog, pretty much everything I owned and I was told I had cancer. It seemed like every time I asked "what else could possibly go wrong?" it got worse. My 40's are getting to be fun but only because I've embraced the fact that I'm not 20 anymore.

    You had melanoma right? What kind of treatment did you have to get?

    My 20's were a blast...I don't know if they could have been any better. LOL. I met my wife when I was 25 and we got married when I was 29. We continued to have a great time. Things slowed down a bit when we had kids. All my friends got RV's and instead of going to party in Vegas, we would go camping for long weekends with all the kids. We had a group of about 10 RV's (including my parents) that went on pretty much every trip together. I reconnected with Grads & Mrs. Daytona in about 2008 after quite a few years and he got me on the Forums. My 40's have been great so far. I definitely have had a great time in 2012 & 2013 with all the people I have met through the forums.

    Wife and I met in my mid twenties and married late 20's as well. We did all the fun stuff with all the other single and married friends, but we were one of the only couples that continued to do the fun stuff(boating, dunes, camping, etc.) once we all started having children. Hell, I'd been doing it all along since I already had a boy from my previous marriage, he was always in the middle of all our parties and camping trips. Some epic and classic pictures with him being in the middle of it all, like him in control of the beer tap, or being tossed around in the lake by everyone...makes me laugh thinking of that stuff.
    It was kinda sad that many of our friends more or less fell off the face of the earth when they had kids.
    I love my wife, my wife loves me.:encouragement:

    I got off relatively easy. I had a section on my back removed along with 9 lymph nodes in my armpit. I had a tube sticking out of the side of my chest as well as a bag that I had to carry around for three weeks. I also had to do a topical chemo treatment (Fluorouracil) that essentially eats your skin for about a month.

    I think about you all the time man....I hope you're doing okay.

    This is probably the only time you can say that and not creep a guy out
