Recently, I've been asked by members some questions, wch I will try to answer in this blog & in a latter one- like do I still wrestle? Yes, tho not from members here, basically w tourists who are game for some hot, sweaty fun & yes, I had some gr8t matches b4 I left NY (but again, not w anyone from this site); do I travel back to the States? No, I didn't travel much when I lived back in the States, wch is why I didn't have many listed matches & No, I don't really intend or want to tho I am considering a partial residence in San Diego next year; why so few listed matches? A few reasons above but more details below & another time; & what happened w Coach?, wch I will explain shortly.
Generally, lemme just say that in all honesty, wrestling for me is very erotic & always has been so just know, I won't wrestle anyone from this site unless they are gonna make my dick hard; otherwise, I'm not gonna have the desire to compete w U for domination, test your strength & skill, it's a waste of my time & at my age, I no longer allow that to happen. Which brings up another point- my age; at 70, I aint gonna be wrestling at the Gay Games, aint wrestling for a scholarship, aint gonna compete w men way younger than myself- it's for fun, body contact, & exercise. Which brings up another point- over a year ago, in my last blog, I mentioned there was a beach w my name on it- PV Baby! Fell in love w the place & made it my biz to get my butt here full time- I live in year round summer, luv it, w/in walking distance to a beach, luv it, & PV is 1 of the premier gay tourist destinations on the planet, LOVE THAT! So, I am outdoors all the time, swimming/gym almost every day, plenty of exercise & "body contact"whenever I choose so I am more than happy w my life/lifestyle here (wch explains why I really haven't been online much this past year, hardly ever in chat).
B4 I drove down here last year, I thought I might stop along the way & have some matches but my goal was to get here as quickly as possible (4 days to Flagstff, 3 more days to PV & that's travelimg 10-14 hours/day) so I apologize to some men I had been chatting with about not meeting up (& because the trip was way too long, never drove back). I live in the Romantic Zone (RZ) & tho we do have gyms, there are no wrestling/boxing/martial arts gyms here tho there are some bjj/boxing gyms in other parts of the city; now that I'm finally settled into my condo, I may consider joining one but key word is may- as I said, I live in perpetual summer & I'm too old & happy to get my lazy ass butt up & out for an early AM or evening training sessions, esp if most of the class is under 25 (most gyms in PV are NOT air-conditioned & I'm not fully acclimated to a tropical summer- just working out at Big Apple this past summer, I always sweat buckets & lose a couple of pounds). So we go to the beach & swim, wch is, was & always will be my favorite exercise- water sports are my passion, big reason why I moved here.
Now Coach- many of U know my relationship w Joe cause I was busted up when he suddenly cut off our training sessions w/o any explanation, a subject of my 2nd blog- I was devastated because of our close relationship over the prior years. Then, in another blog, I wrote how lucky I was that we reconnected. Now, I can say how extremely fortunate I was to have spent trime training w him- I cannot say w certainty what happened but I believe he may be at peace. When Joe & I reconnected, he made cleat that he had no idea how long we would continue training together & when the tme came, he would let me know- the time came.
We trained for another 18 months & this time, it was time for me to step up since our training was as much about him as it was for me- I cannot say why but obviously being in gr8t shape from an early age w hus 8-pac & having an extensive background in boxing. he enjoyed gut punching & man, did he enjoy taking that ball hundreds of times; just as he always pushed me, I did the same to him to keep him in shape. Very few of U know what it's like to deal w individuals who are terminally ill- having cared 4 friends & partners for over a dozen years during the AIDS epidemic, all of whom died, & having cared for an elderly disabled parent till her death for over a dozen years, U sorta learn to appreciate the time U have together cause once it's gone, it's gone, no regrets. Joe was, as always, the same remarkable Coach that gave me the hardest gut I ever had & harder than most on this site- I've yet to see anyone do a video similar to mine, just sayin. But, to me, he was so much more than that- he was one of the more dominant male figures in my life: we listened to each other- for example, I never tired of hearing his RailRoad stories & jokes & he was curious when I told him about my gay lifestyle in NY (wch made him very different from most conservative Southerners); we confided in each other & gave each other advise- he was my friend, a brother & I miss him. About 6 months ago, he told me that it was time; he had prepared me so as upsetting as it was, no tears, no drama but a heartfelt Good Bye & I told him I loved him & he said he loved me. I miss that man- he was 1 of the most generous, honest, open hearted sportsman that I have ever met, totally w/o arrogance or pretense, a gentleman. U guys wanna know about tuff/strength- imagine getting a diagnosis of terminal brain cancer & being told U may have only a few months (luckily, he had longer); imagine watching & experiencing your body parts weaken/deteriorate gradually- only then can U imagine the mental & physical strength & character that it takes to accept that diagnosis & fight every day for some normalcy, esp when U were in perfect health for most of your life- that's TUFF! I can go on indefinitely but U guys get the idea of how much I admire, respect & love Joe.
A couple of months later, a couple of months ago, I noticed a call/message from Joe that came while I was at the beach, an unavoidable regret- it was from Joe but the nessage wasn't able to transcribe, wch leads me to believe his time had come- he said he would try to let me know & I believe he did. I am honored/glad to have known the man, nothing more to be said.

Thank you for this important update. Glad to hear you've found your bliss! Thanks as well for sharing about Coach - we had a lot of laughs (and did A LOT of V ups) on the phone, he toughened me up and helped me see the capacity to be stronger than imaginable and did so with that Southern gentlemanly politeness and charm. I could tell he was a great man from our first phone conversation as he was going through a drive thru and was so kind to the worker. I hope he has a peaceful passage to what comes next. Thank you.
