[Music] when you're in good health and you can get around you can enjoy the activities the friends the events the family coming to visit you they're an awful lot of very bright nice intelligent people living here at another things like house work and yard work which we've always enjoyed hugely became more of a Drudge we didn't seem to have any time to do other things [Music] they wanted something medical a life care center in my future because things can happen we'd watched relations and friends go downhill sometimes rapidly sometimes very gradually we've watched the problems that that causes for their family we just didn't want our children have to worry about our well-being or the issues of downsizing who was going to get what and so forth and so on we took on that responsibility for our children we did that and the kids really appreciate it [Music] it's never too early but it can very easily be too late and we came here maybe earlier than we would have otherwise done and for not not huge reasons we just did and were thrilled our children know that were cared for in an emergency and it's a nice place for them to visit we have a family coming for dinner this evening when I moved in six years ago I felt it was the right decision and now six years later I know it was the right decision when there are programs like from Northwestern musical programs afterwards you can sit around and and say how did you decide to play the tuba or what made you decide to get into a string instrument I've never been able to do that Evanston's got us so much to do it's such a nice little town we wanted to be near the water we're near the lake I just knew the location because I walked around for 25 years so this is a fantastic location it has shops banks restaurants I knew then that I wanted all of that in a smaller apartment which I have and I'm crazy about [Music] you
