I went out for a quick walk around the grounds at noon today while my clothes were in the dryer. I went down the elevator with a couple of the elders, with walkers. I passed the formal dining room where there was a line waiting for lunch, everyone with walkers. I went through the lobby and every resident had a walker. Outside, even the walkers had walkers.
And, one might wonder. Why isn’t anyone playing basketball?
I did have a nice walk around the “wilderness trail” in my dress and sandals. Didn’t see anyone there except one resident doing some landscaping.

Speaking of landscaping, we are getting a new staff “gardener”. I wonder if the candidates know that deadheading these roses is a part of their portfolio. I did it the first two years that I lived here. Then I didn’t. Too hot and prickly a job for me in my dotage. And, it is an endless task.
