Beschreibung
"...eighty-three-year-old Peggy decides the time has finally come to move into a senior living facility with her husband, John, who follows his beloved bride...grudgingly. Once ensconced in "The Home," however, John quickly makes a long list of eclectic friends and takes up bocci ball, hatchet throwing, pool playing, and various other distractions that keep him mostly sane. Meanwhile, Peggy finds humor in places a normal person would never think to look--and laughter around every corner. Missing dentures? A mouse in the house? Nude sunbathing with an unexpected audience? Gluttony in the dining hall? A chair volleyball game that turns into geriatric target practice? It's all here."--

Über den Autor
Peggy Rowe lives in Baltimore, Maryland, with John, her husband of sixty-four years. After fifteen years as a stay-at-home mom to their three sons, and a somewhat abbreviated career in education, Peggy began writing in earnest. She has written three New York Times bestsellers since turning eighty. And now Peggy and her ninety-one-year-old husband have moved into a retirement community where shuffleboard, bocce ball, swimming, shooting pool, and table games are a way of life. Good stories and humor are around every corner. "It's all good" Peggy says, "if you like being around old people; the place is crawling with them. Some are even older than we are--if you can imagine that."
