May 20: Sixth Decade: 1988 - 1997
Another Countdown: Taking a cue from Paul Walters I am starting a seven day countdown to my birthday (May 26th) Each day I’ll be posting a picture with retrospective images and symbolism from a different decade. It is up to you to figure out the symbolism. (Hey, it isn’t all that hard.)
Women and children be warned: On the 26th I will post a FULL MONTY image of myself.
Unlike Paul, I shall continue my PaD after my birthday.
Okay here is the skinny on this image:
The die is set at six to indicate the retrospective covers my sixth decade (51 to 60 years old)
The chess piece is a King. I feel I was flourishing in my work and had a achieved master status in experience and accomplishment.
It represents the period of my life when I first became single again, and the lovely blonde is Lynn who stole my heart early in this period.
My photo was taken at Milford Sound because this was a period when I traveled a great deal both in the US and abroad.
Clinton was President during most of that time. I thought he was the best and the brightest although he ultimately deeply disappointed me with all of his antics.
(At the top) The RM was my company logo, and the ODN logo captures my heavy involvement in leadership roles in the professional organization.
