A friend has asked what a place like Paradise Village looks like; so here are a couple of pictures.  The reason for the name is that the village is located in Paradise Valley.  The name of the retirement community makes possible some very interesting conversations. "How are things in Paradise?" is a common question.  I must say I have no complaints about Paradise... except perhaps that sometimes my Internet connection with the outside world quits, and this afternoon was one of those times.  I'm sitting down in the reception area where there is free WiFi.  That is working, so apparently Paradise hasn't lost its connection with the outside world.
