As I was looking at the pics, I thought "you're a good sport, John". Don beat me to it. That had to be a good time for the residents.

That is a mighty fine deed you are doing. So many of the folks in the rest homes are neglected.

That was a good thing you did for the residents at the home, John. So many are put in there and forgotten about. A little kindness and attention to them goes a long way. It makes their day. Thanks.

I am am a big kid at heart in an old geezer's body! If you can't laugh at yourself who else you gonna laugh at ? I cannot speak for other areas, but people where Mom is have a lot more visitors than I expected. A few do not have family in the area, and only get occasional visitors, but most have visitors at least twice a week, and many have visitors everyday. The biggest problem in any nursing home is boredom. They have exercises 3 times a week for those who are capable of doing anything, of course they are geared to people who are not capable of getting up and moving around. I attend many of them and clown around a bit during the exercises, and it is amazing how many people that normally just want to sit there will watch me and do the exercises I do.

Heck, I'd sit and watch you do exercises. I'll bet that is a sight to see. Good work, Old man.
