aging in place.....

ok, so on the way to work yesterday i heard a piece on npr about the 50th anniversary of sun city in arizona....a planned senior retirement community......and one of the issues covered in this piece was the need for such communities to expand from the original premise of these locations....such as a loosening of the minimum age restrictions.....seems more folks desire to 'age-in-place' in their current homes rather than to move to such communities because of these restrictions......i especially liek the notion of aging-in-place.....given that i intend to stay put in my own home until the bitter end....i really like where i live, and i like most of my home's features.....yeah, if i won the lottery i would install an AGA stove, and a greenhouse and a lap-pool......but other than these embellishments i think my house suits me just fine.....
