parks and rec

boomers blown away

Silicon is not only the stuff of microchips. For much longer it’s been the main ingredient in recipes for glass.

They offer four day glasses for beginners, even seniors with hardy lungs, […]

3-D holiday

Bay Area seniors with creative grandkids getting restless over the holidays might well consider taking them to the Renegade Craft Fair, part of the pop-up exhibits of the currently homeless Museum of Craft and Design.
