22 Places Boomers Can Get Discount Eats in the QCA

I had mixed feelings about turning 50. One the one hand, I thought the age might bring me wisdom and reverence. On the other hand, I felt it would close a lot of doors for me. As it approached I realized, you are only as old as you allow yourself to feel, and behave. *grin*
