Pat I know people who are afraid to live, which is heart breaking. We have so little time here we should make the best of it. I am 74 and plan to sky dive one day, even want to scuba dive off the Florida or Mexican coast. When I was 70 I learned to sail a sail boat which was one of three things I had on my bucket list. Grin!
