Family Matters

THEY ARE FAMILY MATTERS, the way we cope with the realities of family, home, and career. And when our coping is no longer effective-------what then? TAKE FOR INSTANCE, THE SEDUCTIVE PROMISE OF RETIREMENT. Dan Padgett had nurtured his carefree retirement dreams for decades. Meanwhile, his long-suffering wife longed for the time they could settle into the satisfying golden years she envisioned. NOW, WITH RETIREMENT IN HAND, their home is anything but ‘settled' and ‘satisfying.' Instead, they are living in a virtual war zone. IN SHORT ORDER THE ENTIRE FAMILY, three generations in all, will be mired in the existential quicksand----doing their best to understand what ‘home' means, and ‘where' it is to be found. CAN DAN'S ‘BLUE HIGHWAY' DREAM possibly produce the answers they all longed to find.
