About
Some people seem to think that once you turn forty, or fifty, or sixty, or seventy, that you can’t have fun anymore. Can’t go do things that require physical exertion or that include any potential for injury. We say: Go sell that somewhere else.
Xtreme Geezer has a lot of articles that cover how to start a new hobby when you are middle age or older, and there are articles about people continuing to do things they love, well into what is commonly considered old age. As you get older you tend to have more leisure time–the kids are gone or at least don’t require as much of your time, you may have retired or at least accumulated enough vacation that you can play more. When you see something you’ve never done before that looks like fun, this is the time to do it. And then tell us about it here.
There is also a Forum section where you can engage in lively conversation about almost anything (but especially about Xtreme Geezer activities) with like-minded people. We hope this will grow into a vibrant community for sharing information about staying active.
Tell Us Your Story
Xtreme Geezer is for people who don’t want a seat on the tour bus, don’t want to watch others play. Whatever you are doing to stay in the big game, tell us about it here to encourage others. Life is an adventure. Tell us about yours. Just click the Your Story tab and fill out the form.
Xtreme Geezer has some technological whiz bang stuff to make all of this a little more interesting. You can upload photographs and they will be placed into your article. If you upload a GPS file (either .gpx or .kml) the system will automatically create a Google map showing your trip. The first time you upload an article it may take a little while before you see it published–we need to be sure you’re not some slimy spammer. But once you’ve had an article approved any new articles you post will show up immediately. We may do some editing later, but your story will be up.
If you’d like even more control over your stories, drop us a line and we’ll make you an author. You can have full access to all the capabilities, including video and audio feeds.
