Papa’s World – Being a senior!

My dream since I was in my twenties!

I would kid to my wife –

“I WANT TO SELL HOT DOGS ON THE BEACH”!

We would take yearly vacations –

To a beach.

I found myself counting down the days as soon as we got there.

I formed an idea in my head-

“Someday” – I will be able to spend every day at the beach if I choose to.

I would be the one sitting on the sand and watching those folks –

Packing up after a week and leaving to go back home!

Our SENIOR years are now just like that.

We live maybe four or five miles from the beach.

No traffic and in ten minutes we are standing on the sand.

My dream has come true in my senior years!

We still travel back to NVA for the holidays.

And they all travel down to spend time with us.

Our plan for moving South-

Was to be within a six to eight-hour drive –

For us to go home-

Or family to come down to us.

As we advance in our senior years –

We might have to curtail the traveling!

But for now,

We are still able to do the trips back and forth.

Home is where our hearts are.

Blue skies- white clouds –

Sunshine- warm weather-

Hardly any snow or ice.

Yes- it can and is cold during periods of time.

But with a jacket, gloves, and scarf-

I can manage-

Taking them off as the day warms up!

Being a senior-

It seems that the cold affects me more and more each year!

My two sons –

Troy on the left and Shawn on the right-

Still live back in NWPA where they grew up!

Both have been down once or twice.

And both will come for more visits.

Love them always.

That is why our beach chairs sit high rather than low to the sand! LOL

Being a SENIOR –

And for the past TWENTY YEARS-

We have taken this supplement –

To obtain healthy nutrition in our senior years.

The sand – surf – call us.

What was a dream for all those years-

Is today a reality!

Closer to 80 than 70!

Dreams do come true –

Living life to the plus in our senior years.
