A place for bandsters in their 60's

I read a post that someone in their 60's wrote and

said there was nowhere to go where people are in

their age group. I thought maybe they would like to

have a thread where the 60 yr old (and/or older)

people could come and talk with people around the

same age.

Hey,you're so welcome Jann. You need to be in bandland! We'll get you there one way or another! Where do you live in CA?

We live in Beautiful down town Livermore. Livermore is known for it's wine country. We also have large cattle ranches. We have just revitalized our down town area with wide side walks with many resturants offering open air dining. Livermore is a great destination. Guess you can tell I SELL real estate here. lol Best regards Jann

Hmmm.... might have to check that out on our way back north, Jann. Is it anywhere near a main north/south highway?? Not in the market for real estate, but like to explore new places.

Hi Phil....When you head north stop by and see our little town. We are off the Interstate "5" to the 580 take the Livermore exits. If you come by in the fall you can sample our wineries. The Wente winery has a nice resturant overlooking the vinyard. We just had our grand opening of our new Bankhead Theatre (just like big time) I brokered that transaction. We have lots of friendly down home folks here.

ThinAgainJann..... My DH and I spend our summers in Petaluma, CA which is about 40 miles north of San Francisco in the heart of the Sonoma wine country.... The summer weather is so nice and we really like it there .....

Phil.... We are currently in Yuma, AZ and are wanting to go to Quartzite.... Have you gone there yet?? I have been thinking it would be nice to meet up with you and Sharon160 if we can work out a date to meet.....

By the way does anyone know why this thread is not included in the new format under the "Sixties"?? I had to go into my control panel and link from the thread there....

Happy Sunday to all....

P.S.... ThinAgainJann.... If you have not made a decision on your Dr for surgery, I would like to suggest my Dr Kirshenbaum in Denver, Colorado.... He charges $9950 and that is for everything including 3 months followup and fills, after that fills are only $15... Dr K and his staff are the greatest and he truly cares about his patients.... There is a couple of threads about Dr Kirshenbaum started by his patients under the "Doctors and Hospital" category.... There is also a link to his website under my signature....

Good Luck......

New format has its pros and cons! Only 60's thread I can find is under "I like this"!

Going to Quartzsite this thursday, just for the day. Going to the pool right now, but when I get back I'll PM you my cell phone number... if you think you might be there that day. Would love to meet. We're going alone. So we're open to any suggestions. We just usually roam up & down the swap meet stuff after the BIG TENT.

I always have a teribble time finding this thread and I love it. Do you suspose everyone could just move over to the new sixties group which is easier to find?

You can ask Alex of Wheestin to do it - or do what I did on the 50's thread is just start an new thread under the new forums saying we have a new place to meet - somehow our over 50+ thread got moved there... so it can be done...

I just started a new thread under the 60's threads called New 60+ Thread. Maybe that will get folks over to that one??!

That should do it. The only reason there was no thread under 60's is because nobody started one.

I am considering lap band in three months and am interested in hearing from people who are over 60. Also people who have sleep apnea, IBS or back pain and how the surgery helped.

Also medications and if the liquids work ok.
