Ellie and Shirley - Young at Heart
Tuesday August 2, 2016
Today I took my friend Shirley to lunch at Chadwick's Restaurant in Brooklyn for her 80th birthday. We are both educators, authors, and lecturers.
Time flies. I remember when we were young growing up on West End Avenue in brooklyn. (Ellie presently 73). Our waiter told us that last week they had a 100th birthday party for a woman who didn't use a cane and had few medical problems. We laughed that most of the patrons were Seniors. Is 1:00 our dinner hour? (lol)
In High School she was a regional champion gymnast.
The body never forgets ...30 years later ...
not quite in shape for the 2016 Olympics ...
Here she is in Aruba with her family and their endless
friends from Basking Ridge, New Jersey this week.
