You Don't Have To See To Wii

Erin Sullivan: SPRING HILL — "I'm from Lincoln, Rhode Island," she says, sliding over one seat closer. "I've been here since November 2005."

She's just finished her turn playing tennis on the Wii Nintendo game that's been all the rage here at Atria Evergreen Woods. Irene Sudol is part of a small core group that attends nearly every activity at the retirement community. She keeps herself so busy there's no time to dwell.

There's Wii bowling after Mass on Sundays. Trivia. Current events discussions on Fridays. Dancing. Cocktail parties (Margarita Mondays! Tom Collins Tuesdays!). Cooking classes. Cheer Club visits to the sick. Card games. Field trips. Welcoming committees for newcomers.
