The best part about being a senior is that you don't worry about inconsequential things​

Unfortunately, I worry about what is or isn't inconsequential.

My old friend, Don. Gone now. He was a recluse but he would let two of us visit for lunch on Wednesdays. We took turns buying takeout from the local restaurant, fish and chips or clam chowder. This one looks like a clam chowder day.

Another of those (alas entirely too rare) Once In A Lifetime shot.

Please share the details of this occasion with us. I am madly curious. The lady looks like fun and is so obviously a Bonne Vivante. Nowadays in these increasingly dreary times, rather a rare species...

This one is also obviously a social live wire!! And I must say, she looks decades younger than her century of life.

My congratulations for this great image.

BTW I've noticed at least one other photo in this thread that I regard as equally the same. You will surely know which one... I was tempted to post the image with this comment, but have resisted out of concern of being accused of hogging this thread, if not the entire site.

I really don´t know wich photo you´ve noticed, but thanks a lot anyway.


This photo was extremely hard to print and to scan:
