Bay seniors don’t have to be Moms to take advantage of the San Francisco Rose Society’s annual floral giveway. Yes, the exhibit happens on Mother’s Day, Sunday May 13 at Golden Gate Park’s Hall of Flowers starting at 12:30. For  free. Then at 4 the traditional offering of roses for absolutely nada, nothing, zilch begins. […]

Bay seniors still curious about the lives of tormented geniuses, are encouraged to take a spin to Danville’s Tao House, where Eugene O’Neill wrote his masterworks, ”Iceman Cometh” and “Long Days Journey into Night”. It Is a National Park. O’Neill moved here in 1937 with his wife, the impossibly named Carlotta Monterey, and lived here […]

Bay seniors, who find Charlie Rose only whets their appetite for more intellectual stimulation, might want to consider auditing a class or two at UC Berkeley.
