Time Flies
Yesterday I visited my grandparents
80 and 82
In their house with air conditioning
High speed internet
iPads and WiFi routers
It is 2023.
When they were children,
Neither of my grandparents
Had an indoor toilet.
They are not retirees.
They are time travelers.

This is wonderful. So true. My grandmother didn’t see a car till she was 14! E.KY life.
EKY living is something special for sure
Love the ending, great concept, I’ll probably steal it in some way if my muse agrees
I stole it from tv!

They are very cool. Thank you!
The last line is amazing! Time traveling is a neat way to think of aging.
Thank you, Katrina! It definitely helps me worry less about aging to think of it that way.
