I was meeting with some colleagues today and we were talking about aging and being engaged in life and purpose. Then I walked down the hall and talked wtih another colleague who told me his truck now has 160,000 miles and runs like new. Then I got an email to a link to Rachel Veitch featured at Growing Bolder, which brought it all full circle.
Rachel is almost 91 and last bought a car when Lyndon Baines Johnson was President – that was 600,000 miles ago. Her "Chariot" as she calls it is a 1964 Mercury Comet Caliente. Rachel is a retired nurse who volunteers several times a week with the Orlando, Florida, police department. That’s when she’s not working on her Chariot.
