Marianne Goss
A retired university publications editor and journalist, I live in the South Loop and volunteer as a Chicago Greeter. Getting the most out of retired life in the big city will be a recurrent theme of this blog, but I consider any topic fair game because the perspective will be that of a retiree.

-
Well, at 80, you've got to watch the date you put on checks. Might get the year wrong. -
This is a great example of how blogs give us room to consider things by writing about them. Thank you.…
