Life, like a roller coaster, has its ups and downs. In this book,
Babette Williams relates the experiences she enjoyed-and sometimes had
to cope with-during the past several years since she, her husband, and
two dogs moved to Oak Hammock at the University of Florida. With her
usual wry humor and quirky take on everyday happenings, Babette shares
her hard-won insights into the adjustments of living at a Continuing
Care Retirement Community. Readers of all ages who like to laugh and
learn will find this a gratifying and diverting book.
