Research demonstrates that exercise is an important component in treating such ailments and debilitating illness such as depression, stroke, heart disease, brain or cognitive malfunction,and Alzheimer's disease.

I suggest that proper exercise can be used as a preventive measure for psychological, cognitive, and physical health as well. Follow my prescription and lead a better, more fulfilling, and healthier life.

Family Reunion


Family Reunion
Roughly 6 months ago, I talked with my sister, Beverly, about another family reunion since we did not have one last year. We also wanted to make sure that we would attend a University of Michigan football game as part of our weekend of family festivities. We consulted with Cousin Shelly and decided to attend the University of Michigan and Penn State game on November 3. Incidentally, two years ago, during our weekend reunion, we witnessed Michigan conquering  Penn State 49 to 13.

Reservations were made. Tony and Debbie took in our Border collie Sherry ,and we found a house sitter for Digger. Tony drove us to the Sacramento airport for our flight to Detroit’s Metropolitan Airport.
As part of our Detroit family tradition, Linda and I played pickle ball at the Salter Recreation Center in Royal Oak. After a few hours of pickle ball, Bev joined us at our hotel. She couldn’t play pickle ball with us, since she had undergone cataract surgery the preceding Monday. Later that Friday evening, we had dinner at a Middle Eastern restaurant joined by cousins Shelly, Richard, Judy, Steven, Roger, Margie, Barry and daughter Hannah.
On Saturday, Linda, Bev, Shelly and I drove to Ann Arbor to meet cousins, Rick and Barbara for brunch before the game. Then we all headed for the Big House. Linda, Bev and Shelly were picked up by Marty Betts and chauffeured to the game. I met them all at the M Fan tailgate and hooked up with Jim Betts, Pres. of the M Fan football alumni club. Jim procured game tickets, and we were delighted to be near the 35 yard line close to the field in Section 25, Row 67. Wolverines led 14 to 0 going into halftime. During halftime, the two university bands put on a wonderful display highlighting a dragon formation while playing and marching to the Game of Thrones music.
