And so the story goes, to where? No one knows. But it involves a Volkswagen T2 Crossover Bay Bus called Billie Bud (known to most people as ‘WOW, a camper van’); a Pentax LX SLR camera loaded with black and white film; cooking vegetarian food on a basic set up of Cobb cooker, a couple of gas rings and an open fire; reading books; listening to music and the ruminations from a retired Staff Nurse. Well......got to fill the hours outside of being a pensioner somehow.

Old Man.

Young Man Summers.

This morning, early hours, it was nice to play four extra keyboard parts and layer them onto this song below. Reminiscing? Probably. Wrote the Old Man song when about 17 years old. Maybe a little younger.

Last year I remembered the melody and most of the lyrics. So picked up the acoustic and played it with fondness. I definitely got the idea from Neil Young’s song of the same title name.

I decided to give this updated version no more lyrics. Just keep the ones I remember. But knowing my memory…….they could have been different anyway.
