What Geezers do forEntertainment

In case you've wondered what older people do for entertainment . . . Dad watches the installation of a new water tank in our development. Actually, it was pretty impressive. Dad has followed the construction from the beginning--the digging of the hole, the pouring of concrete, and now the installation. I, on the other hand, stand on the top of the world with friends in Glacier Park.I did an eleven and a half mile hike yesterday, on one of the most beautiful days possible. Lots of grand vistas, and I have LOTS of pictures, but have chosen these two--one to show that I was there and the view was vast; the other to show "beauty among the ashes." The end of our hike included a trek through a burn area--a 2004 fire--but in the late afternoon, with the sun shining on the new low growth, we hardly missed the trees. It was just beautiful. That's my one lament about Texas--the turnings of the seasons, especially fall, just aren't much to brag about. I guess when it comes to "bragging," summer is our only resource, because it's LONG and hotter than Hades.
