depotguy's blog post - Never another complaint

I had a wonderful evening last night. A few years ago I founded a garden club. My town was already blessed with 22 of them so whats one more. The individual clubs all collectively form one large group and last night was our holiday party.
I arrived a little early, got a cocktail and crossed the room to join two ladies I didn't know.We were chatting and whooping it up.
They were great conversationalists. The elder of the two turned to me and said "how old do you think I am?" I figure if you ask that question you must want an answer. I replied "uuhhmm 75"
I was flabergasted when she said 96!!!
She was 53 years older than me. I was so happy to find a new role model! She drove to the party (in the snow no less) mows her own lawn and has been an active garden club member for 64 years! Just when I'm starting to think things are winding down, I meet someone who shows mw I'm really just getting started.
So...Evie, if your reading this....thanks.
