Young At Heart: Five Astonishing Benefits Of Tap Dancing
Tap dancing is a dynamic form of exercise that engages various muscle groups, including the legs, core, and arms. The intricate footwork and rhythmic patterns enhance balance, flexibility, and coordination. As you shuffle, flap, and heel-toe your way across the dance floor, you’re not only improving your cardiovascular health but also refining your motor skills with each step. For me, I felt my heart pumping and I even broke a sweat—but in a way that the exercise seemed easy and invigorating.
Sunflowers Showing Off
I did nothing to deserve this striking floral showpiece that sticks out her neck to show off her beauty. What I did was to keep my birdfeeder filled with a mixture that contains black oil sunflower seeds. The birds do the rest. As they peck at the feeder, cracking open resistant seeds with impressive acuity, some fall to the ground.

Coins of the Bible – Holding History in your Hand
Having just returned from a tour of the Holy Land, (more on this later) I literally saw Biblical history come to life. We saw a reclaimed first century fishing boat from the Sea of Galilee, stood at the headwaters of the Jordan River where Jesus asked, “Who do you say I am?” and walked the…
Teaching This Old Dog Some New Tricks
My teacher kept telling me, “Stop thinking; just paint,” so I did. What came out of it was a very powerful painting that is still one of my favorites to this day. I titled it, Emerging/Disappearing?.
This was the beginning of a new direction in painting for me as I found that it gave me an outlet for all the emotions I had buried all my life. I have since sold many pieces and done commissions.
We’ve STILL Got It!
We are taking the “tired” out of Retired! We are all just too young to retire! Yes, we want to “downsize” into condos or town homes and get a motorhome or fifth-wheel, but Pah-leeze, don’t call it retirement! That equates with old and tired, or sick and tired, and after all, we are just looking forward to traveling, and spending our kids inheritance!
