Well, life doesn't really begin around 50, does it? Or 47, or 52, or whatever age you might be. But we can consider reclaiming parts of our life that might have been neglected or taken over by other priorities. Life is good; and it keeps getting better! We discover that age is just a number -- and the only measure worth taking is the quality of our life. That is the attitude that this group is all about. It is like being reborn, but without the growing pains. So join us -- and enjoy life! Of cou …

This group is for older vital "boomer" couples (about 50+), who want to forge friendships with other couples or casually socialize because this stage of our lives is for us to explore with zest and fun. We accept ourselves with grace and laughter. Couples in their late 40's, 50's, or older have social needs that usually are different than our younger versions. In fact a lot of us are empty-nesters and are discovering that there definitely is life *for us* after parenthood. Join us for a fun ride …
Do you listen to new bands but feel too old to go to their shows? Or, do you tend to go but feel weird about being the oldest person there? There are lots of great shows coming to town and there is NO LAW against grayhairs going to live new music. The solution is to go together. We can strategize ways to stay up beyond our bedtimes! All members are welcome to suggest any kind of new music event on AH. The "Hipster" label is entirely tongue-in-cheek. We're not all that strict about the "ag …

This group is for young singles in or near DC who suffer from psoriasis and excema. Let's face it, meeting new people can be tough if you have psoriasis.

We may be few, but we don't have to be far between! This is not an advocacy or support …
