A bunch of folks getting old together, talking about their $$ and how awful and unsafe the world is.. I love my mixed age community, watching and talking with the kids as they grow up and young folks, sharing newer ideas. Twins just born across the street to a young man who was in jr high when we moved here in 2001.
One around here almost had to close their golf course as folks aged and couldn't play any more. They had to lower the admission age to the community to try and attract some "alive" folks.
