100 years old!

In my line of work, I spend time with lots of older people. Sometimes they are absolutely delightful, as is the case with this lady. She came on the Tonight show when she was 100 years old. I saw that she celebrated her 102nd birthday last June by base jumping off a bridge in Idaho. Check out this clip - I know you'll enjoy her!

I've been gone from the NH for almost 3 years. We celebrated the birthday of a 103 year old before I left. I was told the other day that she had another party last week-106 years! I'd go in to see her and ask her to come to activities. She'd say, "I don't have to do anything I don't want to do, I'm over 100 years old." I couldn't argue with that one:)

She's adorable. Being elderly would be fun if you still had a sharp mind and healthy body, wouldn't it? She's still having a ball. ha.

She has such a sharp mind to be that old! What a sense of humor!

Unfortunately the video won't work in the UK, only in the States.

She is just lovely! I enjoy watching the birthdays on the Today Show, Willard Scott still announces them. Sometimes the people are almost unbelievably old! One guy was 110 a few months ago, I think. Good for them. :)

Cute gal, and you intrigued me to watch the video. She seemed right at home on tv, just being herself with her cute sense of humor.
