A Senior Moment D G Marshall

A 70 year old man decided to fend off his retirement boredom by starting a weekly blog about issues of concern to seniors. He blogs about senior sports (golf and pickleball), shares his perspectives on geriatric topics as diverse as alcohol, social media, divorce, movies, marijuana, humor and, of course, medical and memory concerns. And yes, old people do have an interest in sex-the topic anyhow. However, his weekly perspective purging gradually turns into a diatribe on his family, and after an accident on the pickleball court, it turns into more rant than blog as everyone around him focusses upon his apparent declining cognitive ability. An unexpected 'Granny scam' phone call causes him to leave his home and, accompanied with a surprise partner, go in search of his missing granddaughter. The adventure takes him-them- from Calgary to Toronto, the Caribbean Island of St. Lucia, and then... a new life at 71.
