Book Review: Boom ON...boomers
Summary: 5 Stars
Fascinating to reminisce about how we shaped America in the last half of the 20th century! And what might be accomplished at this time in our lives.
After reading the book a couple of times, and watching the PBS special 3 times, I came away with an excitement that we have so much more we boomers can do.
Of course, our boomer numbers are commanding. And yet, speaking for myself, this is a most expansive, change-filled time of my life. And I am not talking about rocking chairs and tee times!
You see, I have both a personal(family) and professional(high tech career)background that has gotten me very interested in actively persuing a career in the renewable energy field. Makes perfect sense. Like so many of us boomers, I love a good cause....and, a bit of a challenge to get the adrenalin going!!
So right now, both my wife and I are reinventing ourselves. Exciting times indeed. So much to do. So much time remaining thanks to a regular exercise regimen and good genes.
