Own business (churchplaza.com) still working with flexible schedule and no plans to retire. Business travel regularly to China/Vietnam and relax with Airstreaming and fitness (successfuly swam Alcatraz to San Francisco race in August 2016 and now regularly swim open water events fund raising for abused children, cancer research and disabled vets).. Summer home in Eagles Mere Pa so have stayed in touch with the area
and some old friends.
Think I've finally grown up at 75. My politics are moderate, I've learned that friendships are precious, nothing worthwhile comes easily and life is really about growth, grace and forgiveness.
Very best
