Where do you want to grow old?

Where do I want to grow old? It’s already happened! I’m 84 years old. My family (spouse, children, grandchildren, cousins) and friends are nearby (walking distance). We live in a three bedroom home located in a quiet diverse neighborhood. The weather is very good (temperature range 60-75 degrees, rainy season about 2 months.) I’m still healthy and fit (tennis 3 days a week, 30 pushups and squats before and after bedtime.)

@shinran, it sure sounds like you chose where (and how) you wanted to grow old. And to keep on going. Family, friends, diversity, fitness and pleasant climate in which to be social and active. Do you still manage the upkeep of your home and property? What tasks or chores do you choose to get help for?
