A Village for Elders

» A group of Washington DC neighbors have formed a group called "Capitol Hill Elders" that is designed to set up a system for home maintenance and typical retirement home services for them as they grow old in their own homes. "When I was single, I didn't want to live in a singles building, and when I am older, I don't want to live with exclusively one age group. I like the stimulation of different opinions, different ideas and people at different stages in their lives." Ednajane Truax.

Good God, I simply love the name Ednajane Truax. She could do nothing but tell personal anecdotes all day and I'd be impressed.

This is really excellent. It's a fear of mine that, as I age, I may be forced into into an age-specific dwelling. It gives me hope that it will be possible to arrange my life otherwise.
