Young@heart

Since I write mystery novels about older people, I always enjoy successes of the aging population. There’s a terrific singing group called Young@heart, based in Massachusetts that performs around the country. My wife and I had an opportunity to take in a show last Sunday night, and what a show it was. Image about twenty-five people in their seventies up to ninety, singing and dancing for a two hour show. They were terrific, full of energy, outstanding voices and an inspiration for all. It’s particularly amazing to me since I can’t even carry a tune. It was a message to all of us to follow our dreams, no matter our age. And they set an example of active, contributing seniors.
