We are two women in our 60's. We're both very active and since our retirement have enjoyed spending more time bike riding, hiking, swimming, rowing and walking our gorgeous and well behaved West Highland Terrier. We babysit our baby great-niece regularly, visit family in Perth and England every year, and enjoy travelling all over the world.
