I am a 75 year old woman, married with children and grandchildren, and at present, one geriatric dog. I love to be outdoors in my garden, walking, visiting with friends, reading, knitting, swimming, bird watching. I am happiest doing simple things such as going on a picnic, walking by water, or in the woods. Winters are too long in my part of the world, but I try to get out and enjoy the bright cold days, and feeding and watching the birds. Of course I also love to write and receive letters from my penpals.
