Growing old gracefully

An aging mushroom that I came across at Shannon Terrace, Fish Creek Park, on August 30th.

Later: sorry, I'm not getting time to make more than a handful of comments. I've got a major problem with my E-mail again and have spent ALL my time copying and pasting hundreds and hundreds of very important e-mails, both Inbox and Sent, into Word Documents. Up till now, 3:15 A.M., I've been able to delete Sent e-mails after saving them, but I've just discovered that I can't delete any Inbox e-mails, which is a whole new problem. Still got way over 2,000 e-mails to deal with. Looks like I might have to get Shaw to fix this after all. The local Shaw technician was very helpful, but I'm stuck if I can't delete the Inbox e-mails myself, and I want to make sure I've got most things saved before I let someone do any remote deleting and fixing, ha.. Looks like I won't be doing much else for the next week (or 2?) or however long it takes me to cut and paste all the remaining messages. I'm not getting any new e-mails coming in, either, which is going to be a real problem, especially as far as communicating with my friends in England about my brother's belongings and, eventually, selling his house. These Error problems couldn't have come at a worse time .... sigh. Computers, lol!
