Walker1 got a reaction from marylander1940 in What was the first thing that ever made you feel “old”?
Let's see. When I stopped worrying about what people thought of me. A few more years and I will become that old guy yelling at people to get off my lawn!

Walker1 reacted to + Charlie in Wimbledon bans Russian & Belarusian Players
I find the Wimbledon decision surprising, since the tournament is not like the Olympics, where the athletes compete as official representatives of their countries. At Wimbledon, the athletes are individuals, whose nationality seems unconnected to their qualifications to compete. Some of the players, like Azarenka, have minimal current connection to the country in which they hold citizenship. It doesn't seem fair to hold every citizen responsible for the actions of their governments, which they may not even support.

Walker1 reacted to Rudynate in Is traveling still worth it if flights cost twice compared to last year?
I read recently that hotel rates are up nationally 25% - Around here, some seem to have doubled, or more. 4 and 5 star properties in Napa and Sonoma counties defy reason - the craziest are charging 2000/night. A few weeks ago, we stayed overnight at a Hampton Inn in Petaluma - it was very nice for a Hampton Inn I admit - but $350.00/night? We paid it because we needed a change of scenery and we ended up having a really enjoyable time in Petaluma, who knew?
