I named this blog "An Old Broad Abroad" because I couldn't resist the homage to Mark Twain's A Tramp Abroad and Innocents Abroad. And of course it just sounds cute. Despite that, at 62 I don't really think of myself as old. More middle aged really, although the chances of me making it to 124 (or even wanting to) are slim. Still, for me this is my prime, to enjoy doing things the way we want to and where we want to, while we are both relatively healthy and mobile.
When John and I first moved to Spain, lots of people said I should write a blog, but I didn't think that was really my thing. But, recently I've been thinking a blog would be a good place to put down random thoughts about life in Toledo, and life in retirement which seem to be out of place on Facebook.
For now, I'm thinking I'll just try out the concept, and if I keep it up and it seems worth making public, I'll let my friends know about it.
So, if you are reading this, either I did decide to make it public, or I didn't figure out how to keep this private!
