We were tablemates at a banquet a couple weeks ago with a sensational couple in their 80s. They have had a small farm for many years, but just this year sold the last of their cows, each of which was a pet.
They were very articulate and interesting. But, what intrigued and encouraged me the most was when they shared that they REALLY enjoy playing FREECELL and they are working their way through the games. They are up into over 78000 wins!
Now, I play FREECELL and Spider Solitaire because it really helps me center. When things get hectic or I've finished a hard project and need a break before moving on, I 'treat' me to a puzzle. But, I have MANY losses because at FREECELL, I like to 'trap' the smallest card possible and have all the cards stacked up to make one connected leap to the top. This doesn't work out well for me in many games, maybe due to my decisions.
No matter what the motive for finishing the game or the style of approach, I want to keep playing FREECELL into my 80s too!
