Star Valley man, still working full-time, to turn 104


ETNA, Wyo. -

A Star Valley man who still works full time will turn 104 years old this weekend.

Sit down with Etna's Lloyd Baker, and you'll find it's hard to tell if he's working to live or living to work.

"I'm actually in better health than I was 40 or 50 years ago," said Baker.

Baker, born in 1911, still runs his surveying business, Lloyd B. Baker & Associates. He's gone from using equipment that could be considered antiques to using GPS units.

"It's a whole lot easier," said Baker.

He sat by me 4 years ago when we were getting our restricted pesticide licenses. See he drove his younger brother(owns Freedom Arms ,http://www.freedomarms.com/)to Cheyenne last winter to testified on some gun bills

That was very interesting. So, soap and milk are what's really bad for us. :lol:

110-Year-Old Nebraska Man's Tip for Longevity: Beer

(NEWSER) – Mark Behrends of Nebraska celebrated a milestone rare among men this week—he turned 110, qualifying him for supercentenarian status. The majority of people who reach that mark are women, notes Omaha.com. As for that inevitable question about the secret to his longevity, Behrends has a pretty good answer: beer. "He always told everybody the reason he has lived so long is drinking one can of beer, every day at 3pm," says daughter Lois. He favors Miller but would be happy with "whatever kind was around."

Behrends is Nebraska's oldest living resident and quite possibly the oldest man in the nation, notes the website. That part's a little unclear, however, because a California man claims to be 116 and an Illinois man 112, though their age records, unlike those of Behrends, cannot be verified by the national Gerontology Research Group. Behrends lived his first 60 years on a farm, raising seven kids with wife Irene, before moving to the city, reports the Lincoln Journal Star. He was still driving his pickup until a few years ago and, technically, his driver's license doesn't expire until his next birthday. (This supercentenarian's secret? Raw eggs and no men.)
