Joan travelled to Hollywood thinking her career might take off.
Instead, she opened a dance studio in Herkimer, married and had no children.
She once climbed Mount Marcy. Her guild pension covers the expenses of Adirondac Assisted Living Board and Care.

With her new hip, she foxtrots every morning.

well done 55! Great visuals combining with a hopefulness; presenting a snapshot of a life that didn't turn out as expected. Thanks for linking up today :)
ha nice - foxtrot with her new hip...yeah - let her dance on..
Go sister dance to the end
And I bet she was the queen of the Budapest Film Festival, too. I think it was John Lennon who said that life is what happens while you're making other plans, and it sounds as if that's what happened here. Really good work on a difficult prompt to be original with.
Dance on into the days of tomorrow, twinkling like a star.
at least she still has the spunk eh? yeah you gave this a nice flavor, different, really good...
love that you gave her an exciting life, and had her still enjoying her days.
One of the better, more original 'she had a life before relegated to the rest home bin' works I've read from this bunch (I've read 26 thus far). Good stuff.
