Our First Broadway Play

Guest post written by George Winthrop

I haven’t been to New York City since I was 19, and now that I’m 63, I can see how things have changed. It’s absolutely phenomenal! My wife and I came to the city to bring more excitement into our lives. After retirement, things became so quiet around the house. We knew we had to do some traveling to stay sane. We’ve always wanted to go Broadway production, and lucky for us, the famous West Side Story is still around. We have plans to see it tonight, and I must say that I’m very excited. I hear there isn’t a bad seat in the theater, and with my new hearing aids from www.miracleearhearingaids.net, I should really be able to hear every note in the musical.

Before heading to the show we plan to go to a local bagel place and finally try a real New York Bagel with sliced lox. Many years ago, my father ate them when he lived in Long Island, and said that they were the best things he’d ever had. In remembrance of him, that’s something I’ll have to do. It’s great being in New York. It has really spiced things up for the Mrs. and me.

Our New Walking Program

Guest post written by Phillis Jarvis

Just recently, Bill and I decided to start a walking program so that we could both stay healthy. We recently read in AARP Magazine that walking just 120 minutes a week could help prevent diabetes and help us stay in shape.

Being that we live in Manhattan, starting up a walking program couldn’t have been easier. There is so much to see and so much hear that we don’t even think about the fact that we are exercising. The other day we made it from the top of Central Park all the way down to Battery Park! It was quite a bit of work, but it was definitely worth it. Starting from the gorgeous Upper East Side and making our way to seeing Lady Liberty from a distance on Ellis Island was a blast. We also made a pit stop in Times Square just to see all the lights and excitement.

The walks have been great for us. I’m so glad that we are adhering to our exercise routine. Our decision to go on these walks is almost import as our decision to get hearing aids from MiracleEarHearingAids.net. I think we have really made some great choices lately.
