Katie Foster
of Arabian Tales and Other Amazing Adventures is the host for this week’s
Blogging Boomer Carnival #286.
The carnival
is a collection of like-minded blogs cooperating to share their best stories of
interest to the Baby Boomer Generation.
For this
carnival, boomer bloggers are writing about the Hubble Space Telescope, federal
grants to connect school cafeterias with local agricultural products,
ways to live comfortably with uncertainty, longevity zones around the world, and
the challenges for expats living overseas.
Boomers, born between 1946 and 1964, are
leading corporations, serving as governmental officials, heading up
non-profits, worrying about retirement, and experiencing layoffs at a higher
rate than younger workers. They’re also reinventing themselves in trying
economic times, with some looking for their dream jobs to keep them happy in
retirement.
At each stage in their lives, boomers have changed things. They’re continuing
to make America different as they begin entering into their retirement years.
In addition
to Unlocking The Power of Your Money, members of the Blogging Boomer Carnival
are: The Midlife Crisis Queen, Sightings From 60, Arabian Tales and Other
Amazing Adventures, So Baby Boomer, and Vaboomer.
