As I saw my widowed aunt at age 59 join various groups, one sticks out in my mind as particularly cool for her (and me, I might add...) so here it is and fyi, she met her "new special friend" there too. She joined a "Current Events" Club in her area and every week they were assigned reading materials and people with varying opinioins attend and are polite to each other and learn about the event/culture. She is VERY different politically from her special friend, but they work well together. It has been 10 years too...yikes...
Food for thought--and she cooks the relevant culture's food or brings a wine from their country as well. She really gets into it and what she learns helps her choose her traveling. Very cool way to live in retirement and in some HUGE ways she is doing more with her life than if her h had lived. Odd, but he was a bit of a recluse. Anyhow, thought I'd pass that on. Lots of interesting people out there, and I do suggest a class as well. You weed out a lot of "UNfun" people b/c those types don't want to learn or grow....
Just mho as usual.
