Message to seniors: Take a hike!

The New York Times reports, in an article named "Goodbye, Golf Clubs.  Hello, Hiking  Boots and Kayak." that over 20% of participants in some of the organized long-distance hiking expeditions are over 60.  Some are in their 80s.  The articles leads off with the case of one Dave Roberts, who is on a 3,000-miles solo hike around Texas.  (Click on the picture below to read the full article.)


Yogi Berra once remarked, "Thinking is 90% mental."  So is aging.
