I
s it possible
for an old
BOOMER to
learn new
tricks?
Here I am almost 50 years old
and there are still things I want
to work on about myself. There
I would like to change. Ways I
do things ways I thinkways
I react.
But is it too late for me to
change? Am I too old? Is it even
possible for someone ahem
my age to change? Or is it
even necessary?
I am not neat nor am I
domestic. I am not a natural
cook. I always have been this way
and yes, my mother was also this
way. But now that I am a wife and
mother with my own husband,
children and home to keep, I
have had to rise far above my
natural tendencies of being a
slob. It takes a lot of energy. But
I do try to keep it together.
I thought it would get easier
as I got older, as I matured. I
thought somehow with time the
cooking, the cleaning, the house
management would all naturally
become a part of me. But it
hasnt. And inside I have always
felt a little bad about this. I have
always felt a little less than other
women who make it all look
so easy. Ive always questioned
why I couldnt keep on top of
everything like other women
seemed to do. That voice inside
me would taunt, Youre almost
50 years old! When are you
fnally going to get it together?
I recently visited with a woman
who has a beautiful home
and three children. She is an
excellent cook and she said that
her children actually complain
about all of the home cooked
meals they have to endure. Just
once, they said, they would love
to eat out.
The more we talked, the more
that nagging voice inside me
spoke. Youre almost 50 years
old. Why cant you be more like
her? The more we spoke, the
worse I felt. But then I started to
wonder why I was even feeling
this way. While this womans
children will have warm
memories of all those wonderful
meals she had prepared while
they were growing up, certainly
there will be something good
my children will remember
about me in their memories.
Something! Why did I feel this
did not measure up?
My friend, Jane Doe, is not
athletic. Yes, she works out and
walks for exercise but youll
never see her on a bike or on
skis. Her husbands family does
both and for years Jane felt
guilty about not participating
in the group hike, bike ride, or
suicide hill skiing the rest of the
family enjoyed on vacations. For
years she considered getting a
bike just so she could join in
though she really didnt want
to. Its just recently that Jane has
made a mental shift with this.
It doesnt bother her any more
when the entire family goes off
on their athletic adventures.
Go on, have fun, shell say.
Ill just stay here and read my
magazine. What was once a
nagging issue to her doesnt
affect her now. Shes let it go
and shes fne by herself.
I recently had a conversation
with some 50-something women.
They said something does
indeed happen to you when you
turn 50. You dont care about
what other people think of you
the way you did when you were
younger. They explained its
kind of like youve fnally grown
into yourself youve become
comfortable in your own skin
you are used to you and you like
you. Youve accepted yourself,
warts and all.
After talking with these women
I thought a lot about this. I think,
sure, if you as a Boomer want to
learn something new and shake
things up, thats great. Start
bicycling, start cooking. But do
it only if you want to for you; not
because you think you have to
in order to measure up to other
people.
So to answer the question: Can
an old Boomer learn new tricks?
The answer is yes. Absolutely.
But perhaps the most important
trick we need to learn is how to
be more accepting of ourselves.
Too late to change?

A
new garden-wide
exhibition, LIGHT:
Installations by Bruce
Munro, opened at
Longwood Gardens,
Kennett Square, June 9 and runs
through Sept. 29. LIGHT is UK
light artist Bruce Munros frst garden
installation in the US. It showcases never-
before-seen views of Longwood at night,
and features six large-scale outdoor
installations, two installations within
Longwoods 4-acre Conservatory, and a
collection of illuminated sculptures in
Longwoods historic Music Room
Bruce Munros imaginative works
will enchant and amaze our guests and
also inspire them to see and experience
gardens in a whole new way, said
Longwood director Paul Redman.
What also appealed to us about Bruces
work is its focus on low-energy output
and his sensitivity to the landscape. He
shares Longwoods commitment to
sustainable practices.
Installation highlights include
Forest of Light, which invites guests
to wander through a serene forest of
20,000 illuminated stems reminiscent
of blooming fowers. Longwoods
undulating Meadow plays host to
the Water Towers, a collection of 69
symmetric towers that create a glowing
maze of light that change hues to music.
In Waterlilies, Munro pays homage to
Longwoods iconic water-platters and
sets his shimmering interpretations to
foat on the Large Lake. Nearby, the
6,000 stem installation Field of Light
beckons visitors toward its enchanting
glow. Arrow Spring artfully mixes
horticultural splendor and LED lights
to create a meandering hillside stream.
Inside the Conservatory, the
Orangery is adorned with six grand
Snowball Chandeliers suspended
from the towering ceiling. Light
Shower rains more than 1,600 drops of
twinkling lights over the fooded Fern
Floor, creating a magical refection
that intensifes the luminous shower.
The Music Room features a collection
of illuminated sculptures and models
created by Munro.
The unmatched beauty of Longwood
Gardens inspired me in so many ways,
said Munro. Creating works that speak
to the landscape but also enhance the
natural beauty of the Gardens was an
exciting artistic challenge. I hope that
guests will see in these works the beauty
of melding light and the landscape to
become one.
Guests can amp up their experience
by downloading a free Light app,
developed especially for the exhibition.
It may be downloaded at www.light.
longwoodgardens.org.
Light: Installations by Bruce
Munro is included in Gardens

P
eople who are
looking for a laid-
back and fuss-free
vacation often turn
to cruising.
Cruisings popularity continues
to grow. Data from the Cruise
Line International Association,
Inc. market profle survey for 2011
found that cruising ranks second
as the most popular vacation
behind land-based nonresort
vacations. Almost 71 percent of
the total vacation market has an
interest in cruising. Among past
cruisers, survey respondents said
they will most likely take another
cruise within the next three years.
Whats behind the popularity
of cruising? One of the main
draws to cruising is its relative
ease. From the moment a ship
embarks, cruisers are aboard a
foating hotel. All of their needs
are met within the confnes of
the ship, and theres no hassle
with baggage or layovers like
there is for air travel. Theres
also no traffc on the open seas,
and cruisers can customize their
days and do as little or as much as
they like.
The all-inclusive nature of
cruising extends to meals. A
popular factor of cruising is that
one neednt look far for the next
meal. Unlike other hotels and
resorts, theres no traveling far for
breakfast, lunch or dinner, and
passengers dont have to carry
around extra money for meal
expenses. Cruise packages often
include all-you-can-eat options.
This can seem like a bargain,
as the cost of meals on other
vacations tends to be a signifcant.
According to Ehow.com,
vacationers spend upwards of $600
in food for a week-long vacation.
In comparison, cruising costs on
average $1,500 per person, which
covers the accommodations,
meals, some excursions, and
onboard activities.
Travelers who are not interested
in planning a day-to-day itinerary
to keep busy often like the
amenities of cruising. Most cruises
have a cruise director who leads
guests in various activities during
the day. Most modern-day cruise
ships offer ample entertainment
options. From swimming pools
to skating rinks to rock walls to
surfng simulators, there are
activities for most age groups.
For an additional cost, cruisers
can leave the ship and go on
specialized excursions at ports of
call. Still, cruisers who just want
to sit on deck and relax can do
just that.
Because most cruise ships travel
in international waters, they are
not governed by the rules of the
land. For example, gambling is
often legal aboard ships when
they are out of port.
Many travelers book cruise
vacations through a travel agent,
which makes it one of the easiest
vacations to plan and enjoy. Simply
pack a suitcase and set sail.
Cruising
is the
no-work
vacation

Hot, lazy summer days are too
precious to waste in the kitchen.
Enhance your outdoor leisure
time with a visit to a local farmers
stand or market to choose fresh
vegetables for this colorful recipe
Ingredients
1/2 cup olive oil
1 large eggplant, cut in 12 slices
(1/3-inch thick)
3 medium zucchinis, cut in 24 slices
(1/4-inch thick)
3 large tomatoes, cut in 6 slices
(1/3-inch thick)
3 medium red onions, cut in 12 slices
(1/3-inch thick)
3/4 cup ricotta cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
2 teaspoons fresh thyme, chopped
1/2 lb. mozzarella cheese, sliced
1/4-inch thick
6 sprigs fresh rosemary
Directions
Preheat barbecue and set on low.
Brush vegetables with olive oil,
season with salt and pepper, and
grill slowly until tender, turning
once. Transfer the vegetables to
a tray, arranging them in a single
layer, and cover tightly with plastic
wrap. The vegetables may be grilled
a day in advance, and refrigerated
after cooling. Bring the vegetables
back to room temperature before
proceeding.
Assembly
Stir together the ricotta, thyme,
salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
Place one slice of eggplant on a
lightly oiled grill sheet or foil pan.
Spread 1 tablespoon of the ricotta
mixture over the eggplant. Cover
with 2 slices of zucchini, 1 slice of
onion, 1 slice of mozzarella, 1 slice
of tomato, and 2 slices of zucchini.
Spread 1 tablespoon of the ricotta
mixture over the onion, and top
with another slice of eggplant.
Repeat this procedure with the
remaining vegetables to make 5
more stacks.
Insert a wooden skewer through
the centre of each stack to create a
hole from top to bottom. Remove
the bottom leaves from each
rosemary sprig, leaving one inch of
leaves on the top. Insert 1 sprig into
the centre hole in each napoleon,
and return to the barbecue.
Heat for about 10 minutes on low,
or until mozzarella is melted and
vegetables are warmed through.
Enjoy the
tantalizing
taste of
Grilled Vegetable
Napoleons
Substitute or add other
vegetables as you wish.
Some nice additions might
be new potatoes or red
peppers. Although the
stacks are attractive and
easy to serve, you may
also arrange the grilled
vegetables and cheese in
a casserole.

M
any Americans are
in the process of
reassessing their
spending patterns,
and boomers and
seniors are no exception. Seventy-
three percent of adults over age 50
started saving more or cutting back
on spending last year, compared
to 2010, according to a November
2011 report by the AARP.
In many cases, the new spirit of
frugality is not necessarily born out
of fnancial necessity, but also out
of a desire to simplify life, avoid
excessive consumption and focus
on whats really important - family,
friends and community.
If youre an adult over 50, maybe
youre exploring the hidden
treasures of your own region
instead of taking exotic vacations.
Maybe youre barbecuing with
friends in the backyard instead
of going out to eat. Maybe youre
spending more time playing with
your grandkids instead of buying
them the latest electronic gadgets.
In short, youre trying to cut back
on spending without sacrifcing
quality of life. Here are fve tips to
help.
Examine recurring expenses.
Its easy to overpay for utilities
and other recurring expenses
if you dont periodically review
your options and make sure
youre getting the best deal. Many
utility companies offer senior
discounts, for example, but you
have to ask. Also consider a lower-
cost no-contract cellphone plan.
Consumer Cellular, for example,
offers a variety of affordable no-
contract voice and data plans that
can be changed without penalty
at any time. Youre never locked
into a plan that forces you to pay
for more service than you need,
and complementary usage alerts
mean you dont have to worry
about accidentally exceeding your
maximum allowance. Flexible
family plans where couples and
families share minutes can save an
additional $20 to $30 per month.
Increase energy effciency.
Another way to reduce your bills is
by increasing the energy effciency
of your home. You can unplug
battery chargers when not in use,
turn off appliances rather than
leaving them in standby mode, use
energy-effcient light bulbs and
turn off the lights when you leave
a room. If youre able to invest a
little to ensure longer-term savings
- whether through weatherproofng
or upgrading aging appliances -
you can schedule an energy audit
to fnd out how to get the biggest
bang for your home-improvement
buck.
Be a smart shopper. If youre not
into clipping coupons, thats OK.
There are other ways to save. For
example, try store-brand products
rather than automatically reaching
for the brands youve always
purchased - in many cases, you wont
be able to tell the difference. Buy in
bulk if you use large quantities of
something. Watch for sales on items
you purchase regularly, but dont
buy something just because its on
sale - if you wouldnt have bought
it otherwise, youre not saving
money. For bigger-ticket items, be
sure to comparison shop to make
sure youre getting the best price.
Websites such as pricegrabber.com
allow you to research numerous
retailers without leaving your
home.
Take advantage of free
entertainment. Wondering what
to do this weekend? Low-cost,
or sometimes free, options are
abundant. Check the events
sections of local newspapers and
websites to see whats happening
in the area - festivals, exhibits and
other special events are often free,
and high schools and colleges
frequently host sporting events,
plays, concerts and lectures that
are open to the public. Libraries
are also an excellent source of
free entertainment - you can try
out new authors, artists and genres
with no risk by borrowing books,
audiobooks, DVDs and CDs instead
of purchasing them. You might
even meet some interesting people
while youre out and about in the
community.
Reassess your gift-giving habits.
If youve ever found yourself
rushing to the mall to buy a last-
minute gift for a loved ones
birthday, chances are youve
spent more than you originally
planned, settled for something
you suspected the recipient might
end up exchanging, or avoided
the decision by purchasing a safe
but impersonal gift card. However,
most of us dont really need more
things. Instead, consider giving
your loved ones the gift of a shared
experience. If your grandson loves
animals, take him to the zoo. If
your sister is into jazz, take her
out for an evening at a jazz club.
Of course, you might not end
up spending less money this way
- experiences come in all price
ranges - so do keep your budget
in mind. The point is that instead
of wasting money on something
that might just sit in the garage for
years, youll enjoy a meaningful
experience together. And thats
what quality of life is all about.
Five money-saving tips for
boomers and seniors
Easy ways to reduce costs
without sacrifcing quality of life
COURTESY OF ARA CONTENT
I
n Amish tradition,
Rumspringa is a time when
the young people of the
faith are allowed to go out
into the world and sample
its temptations before deciding
whether or not they are going to
stay with the church.
Rumspringa is also the name of
some pretty good beer.
Now, the words Amish and
beer are not two terms that
are usually linked together
the Amish generally dont drink
alcohol but Rumspringa
Brewing Company is located in
the heart of Amish Country, just
outside the town of Bird-In-Hand.
Drive there and youll see plenty
of buggies and farmland before
you arrive at Rumspringas home,
which it shares with the Mount
Hope Wine Gallery in a barnlike
structure. That theme continues
inside, where an upstairs caf
is decked out in barn-themed
splendor, complete with a silo that
conceals the walk-in fridge where
the beer is stored.
And what beer it is. Rumspringa
is not a large operation, but what
it turns out is fresh and favorful,
yards ahead of the mass-produced
stuff. Its whats known in beer
culture as a nanobrewery, which
is even smaller than the better-
known term microbrewery.
Its three barrels at a time, says
brewmaster Mike Osborne, 42.
Its a pretty small operation.
Indeed, go behind the scenes
and you wont see big tanks or
massive storage facilities as you
would at places like Iron Hill or
Lancaster Brewing Company.

Its like a home brewing
system, Osborne notes.
But dont be fooled. Theres
a lot of favor on tap.
If you favor something light,
check out the Two in the
Bush IPA, which stands for
India Pale Ale.
With hot days on the
horizon, its an excellent
choice, with a hop favor thats
intense but not overwhelming.
Oh, and that name? Its a pun
on that expression a bird in
the hand, two in the bush.
Bird-In-Hand, Pa. get it?
At the opposite end is the
German Chocolate Blackberry
Stoudt, favored with cocoa
and a hint of blackberry. It
packs a kick like a cup of strong
black coffee. In between,
favor-wise, Osborne says, we
go through a lot of the Red
Caboose Amber, medium-
bodied amber favored with
hints of English caramel.
Osborne got into the
brewmaster trade around
1995 in Cincinnati, Ohio,
as an apprentice I started
kegging beer. Today, hes
helping to helm Rumspringa,
as well as Swashbuckler
Brewing Company, located
on the grounds of the
Pennsylvania Renaissance
Faire at the Mount Hope
Estate in the northern part of
the county. That operation is
growing fast, and Rumspringa
itself has enjoyed an emerging
following since it opened
last summer.
For Osborne, being a
brewmaster is not all fun
and games despite getting
to sample your work. There is
intensive labor involved.
Still, quality control is
the best, he says. Its a
very rewarding job. When
youre fnished, and seeing
people enjoy your product, it
is rewarding.

J
ean-Maurice Jug might
have won a reputation
for crepes and coq au
vin, but after more than
40 years as a chef, he has
returned to his rst love.
That passion is photography.
Growing up in Cloyes, France,
not far from Paris, Jug was the son
of a chef. And it was tradition for
a son to follow in the footsteps of
his father.
Jug did what his family expected
of him, and made a success of
preparing ne French cuisine in
France and in the United States.
He studied to be a chef at Le Coel
Hotellier in Switzerland. Later he
was a chef in Paris, then at Le Bec
Fin, the Inn at Oley, Donecker, Log
Cabin, Bent Creek and his own
JMs Bistro.
But there was always a longing
for photography.
I got my rst 35 millimeter
camera at 14. It was a Leica,
and I loved taking pictures,
recalled Jug.
Through the years, Jug took
pictures of his wife, Gabrielle, and
their two children, Jessica and
Christophe. On more than a few
occasions, his photography skills
were called into play at family
gatherings, holiday celebrations
and weddings.
He loved taking wedding pictures,
if only for the sheer pleasure of
capturing the love between a newly
married couple.
I am French, so I am naturally a
romantic, said Jug in his French
accent that has not faded in 35
years in the United States, mostly
in Pennsylvania.
Jug and his wife have been
married since 1966 and still have
that sparkle. In recent years, it has
been revived, said Jug, because
now he can nally follow his bliss.
Now 65, Jug has started a
whole new chapter in his life
as a wedding photographer.
His company is Time Passages
Photography, based in Ephrata. He
ofcially started his business two
years ago, transforming his hobby
into a new career.
In France being a chef is
prestigious, not as much in
America, said Jug. After so many
years, I was not feeling inspired
anymore. There was so much more
of the business aspect and not so
much of the creativity.
Jug has come to realize that
he is an artist. In many ways
photography is another step in my
creative process, said Jug.
Jug explains that, as a chef, his
work was all about creativity and
pleasing the customer. Few things
made him happier than making
the rounds of his restaurant and
talking to happy customers who
were enjoying the meal he had
prepared.
As a photographer, he has
transitioned that same pleasure
in satisfying the customer into
pleasing his subjects, whether they
are engaged couples, brides and
grooms, high school seniors, or
families. To watch his customers
glow with happiness when they see
their photographs for the rst time
makes him smile, too.
I like wedding photography
because it is just a happy time,
said Jug. It is a great honor to
share in such a meaningful time in
someones life.
No matter how many times
he photographs couples, he
still cherishes the moments as a
wedding photographer.
His favorite moment is almost
always the same.
I look at the groom as he rst sees
his bride and see the expression of,
Wow, Im a lucky guy, said Jug.
I know just how he feels.

Since Jean-Maurice Juge started Time
Passages Photography, the number of
weddings he has photographed has increased
from 18 to about 30 each year.
At most weddings Jug may take as many
as 1,000 photographs, so that he has
between 300 and 400 photographs that make
it to the bride and groom. Often he has an
assistant to help with getting all the special
shots. As much as he enjoys the work, there
is a great deal of stress.
They are counting on me and I wont let
them down, said Jug. Nothing makes me
happier than to hear them say, Wow! when
they see the pictures.
Since Jug started Time Passages
Photography, he thinks back to that first
Leica camera he owned as a teen. He has
since invested in the finest camera equipment
for his newly realized second career.

and Time Passages Photography, call

meaningful time in someones life.

G
rowing up in a
small Ohio town,
David Francis, now
a Lancaster County
resident, did not
have a lot to do.
So he and his friends took
nickels to area truck stops and
bowling alleys to play pinball in
the 1960s and early 1970s.
Now a baby boomer, Francis
recalled visiting his grandparents
in West Virginia, where family
members had a hotel and
restaurant. He, his uncles, and
cousins would play pinball games
for hours as well.
Pinball machines were electro-
mechanical at the time. Francis
said luck played a bigger role in
winning. When a pinball player
got to know a machine well,
he said, they could build up
free balls and games, enough
to keep going for hours on a
single nickel. His favorite game
was Orbit.
D. Gottlieb, Williams, and
Bally made machines in those
days. His favorite was D. Gottlieb,
which had a slight delay.
In 1972 Francis said he saw
an ad in the back of Rolling
Stone, then a newspaper, for
a convention in Columbia,
Missouri. Somehow I convinced
my parents to let me go,
Francis said.
He and a friend left
Thanksgiving Day with one-way
tickets. With no money for a
hotel, they spent the night in a
dorm lounge.
The Ohio teens were among
200 competitors at the event
from 35 states and three foreign
countries. The pinball machines
were ones they had never seen
before, including prototypes.
One prototype had no bells
or buzzers, Francis recalled,
and required players to wear
headphones to hear the action.
Another game had the typical
glass top and the devices, but
then a glass underneath the
bumpers and fippers enabled
the player to see the inner
workings of the game.

What is pinball?
Pinball is usually (although not always) a coin-operated
arcade game played on a pinball machine, a slanted board
usually enclosed in glass.
The objective of pinball is to keep the metal ball in play
on the board, and score points by propelling the ball against
pins and other obstacles placed around the game board. The
player controls the ball with two fippers at the bottom of the
board, which are moved by pressing buttons on either side of
the pinball machine.
The main objective of the game is to score as many points
as possible. Secondary objectives of playing pinball include
staying on the pinball machine as long as possible and also
by earning free games (these are sometimes
called replays).

Francis recalls meeting
characters like a bearded man
known as Washboard Sam. Sam
had a move the teen had never
seen, known as trapping. The
elder player would start the game,
holding the fipper buttons to trap
the ball in the fipper while he
read the instructions and fgured
out which actions would gain the
most points.
Washboard Sam also knew
how nudge the machine without
setting off the tilt or slam
sensor sensors. Sam brought a
model of pendulum that included
a metal ball dangling on a ring,
like the ones in pinball machines
so he could judge just how far
he could nudge the machine
without potentially setting off the
machines sensors.
Organizers did not reveal
the names of the four games in
the fnals until just before that
round began, Francis said. He
does not remember all four of
the fnal games, but he knows
that none of them were Orbit.
A machine he never saw before,
The Jungle, proved a challenged
for him.
I was hoping one was the
Orbit, he said, because that was
my machine.
Even so, the then-16-year-
old from Ohio took seventh
place among the 200 worldwide
hopefuls.
He and his friend hitched-hiked
the entire 14-hour ride home in
the snow. Hitch-hiking, he said,
was common.
Francis never went to another
pinball competition after that
experience. Upon returning
home, he started playing foosball,
which became his new hobby. By
the late 1970s, pinballs became
computerized and video games
had been introduced.
The 1972 pinball competition
was the golden age of pinball,
Francis said, but then it might have
been the time in his life that made
it seem that way.
Pinball facts

A Chicago game and novelty company created the frst pinball machine
in 1931. It was based on a French parlor game called Bagatelle.
The owners called the game Ballyhoo and found success during the
Great Depression when other businesses were going belly up. In 1932,
50,000 games were sold within seven months. The game provided
inexpensive entertainment for people with little spare change. Players
got seven games for a penny.
That company became the Bally Manufacturing Corporation that went
on to operate four casino hotels and 310 health-and-ftness clubs.
D. Gottlieb & Company introduced fippers to the pinball machine in
1947 with the game Humpty Dumpty. The Chicago company started
by David Gottlieb remained a family-owned business until 1977. It later
expanded into bowling games and video arcade machines such as
Reactor and Qbert.
