just a big 'ol shout out Bob, luv it, any "how old is Ed...REALLY" jokes make my day, hell no, how could I be pissed Charlie, at such morning greets 1st thing I found? To be realistic Bob, you gots me by sorta a year, '39 to '40. Truly miss Jim Inks "regulars" on the subject. The more mentions the more I appreciate ALL youse "younguns". Hope I'm right on this, German Wirehaired Pointer? Do enjoy the pics
cheers & stay safe
Ed (still more or less upright)

Born in circa 1832, this tortoise has lived through most of all modern human innovations and milestones. Hope he can make it to 200.

It's really mind-bending how adaptable a creature that lives that long has to be. His habitat is wildly different from what it was in 1832, and he's still chugging along. Respect, tortoises and trees. |

Respect, tortoises and trees. Ed says the same thing… it was about 1830 when America had it’s first steam driven locomotive. He remained in the railroading business for several years and retired after many years of service. The title of the thread might have come across as one in jest, but you cannot argue with history. Ed is a pretty adaptable creature too! |

Imagine: Old Ed is so old that he remembers when rainbows were black and white.
Sorry, Ed. I couldn’t help myself.
