Different Ages but Dollies Just The Same

If physical health remains, my wife and I will head to Florida for the months of January, February and a bit of March. It will be our fifth consecutive winter spent in the Sunshine State. Since wintering in Florida, we have discontinued our annual Branson Christmas trip. If you are unfamiliar with Branson, Missouri, I can best describe it as AARP's response to 'college spring breakers.' Unlike the spring-break college 'dollies,' the Branson 'senior babes' do not have wet T-shirt contests bringing attention to 'perky-points' but instead the AARP gals cover 'sagging points' with gaudy sweatshirts, boasting claims of 'Grandma and Nana' greatness or grandkids' omnipotent abilities.

Florida seniors share one similarity with the Branson seniors; the oldsters' go to bed about 9:00PM, that's the time the 'spring-breakers' are leaving to embrace the night-life. Both groups may find one similar 'activity moment.'  As the senior crowd is 'staggering out of bed' in the morning feeling arthritis pain, the younger crowd is 'staggering in towards a bed' feeling no pain.

The Florida beaches welcome the Sringbreak 'dollies' and the Florida Outlet Malls welcome the 'Smowbird dollies.'
