Hi Cora,

Thanks for following me and joining my network. I've returned the compliment and followed you back.

I've been a Premium member of Wealthy Affiliate for two years, and I don't regret one day!

Wealthy Affiliate is my retirement plan, which is only two years away!

I'm going to have to Google this - what is Pickle Ball!

Best wishes,
Paul.
Be Happy!

Good evening to you, Cora, my name is Ken and I welcome you to WA and thank you for the follow. I'm following you back. I was born and raised in Amarillo, Texas, just up the road from you. Life is much different than it was while growing up.
Now we have the opportunity to earn an income from the Internet, something that only recently existed. It will provide a welcomed source of income in my soon-to-be retirement years too.
I look forward to working with you and wish you much success in your online journey.
Ken

Thank you for following me, Cora. WOW. You're the first one to mention Pickleball. I love the game! I'm terrible because I don't play often enough but it's a great game for so many reasons.

This is a wonderful way to make a little extra money (depending on how much you work - a LOT of extra money) during retirement and I wish you much success.

Dear Cora, thanks for sharing and for adding me to your WA network, much appreciated. Seems you're doing very well, so keep on track and let's stay in touch.

Desmond We are here to help!

Cora, would like to follow you. I am a Registered Nurse also. Recently retired and wanting to pursue my dreams. Retirement can be a stretch to the income so I am looking forward to adding my own business to help out.

I love helping others and have that in my plan too. I think all RNs have that in their blood.

Good luck in your endeavors.

Phyllis

Hi Cora
Thank you for the connection. My wife and I too would like to retire and do so travelling. We look to build this online business through WA and we have plenty to learn. You have set a good example. I have much to learn from you.
My best wishes to you and family
Kind regards
Eddie

Hi Cora,
You are a rather beautiful person, nursing is such a service to others that us 'norms' have to bow down and say thanks.

What is Pickle Ball? it must be a physical sport, not a board game.
I am in Australia and have never heard of this.

I am so happy to have you follow me, I have followed you back.

Trust in your success here in WA if you can manage to follow the lessons you will "make it"

Cheers Jae ♥

Thanks so much for the follow! My Mom really loves playing pickle ball. I haven't tried it yet. My son actually played it in gym one year and he said it's really fun. I have similar goals in a way. I want to travel around the country doing run races! That would be fun. (sort of. lol)

Hi! I am just dropping by to say hi and nice to meet you. Thank you for allowing me in your network. I have followed back. I look forward to learning with you here at WA. I wish you the best in all you do.

Hi Cory,
Sue and I thank you for your following. Sue is a retired RN (see bio) and we are doing what many at Wealthy Affiliate are doing...striving for extra retirement money.

Aloha Cora! Thank you for the return follow. I've never played pickle ball and not sure if it's a card game or an actual sport. LOL!

May you join those of us who are Completely Unemployable Soon!

I too was born and raised in California and Hawaii, yet not Texas. Plenty of Californians are vacating to Texas and other states.

I'm honored and grateful to have found WA and you!
Nancy

Cora thanks for the follow ditto !!!
I like nurses they have a good mindset helping people it takes a certain kind of person to be a good nurse and you must be one after that many years !
Also a friend of mine who recently retired a few years ago invited me to play pickle ball but I guess I should not have beat him so bad he never called me to play again ha ha !
It's good exercise playing pickle ball my lawyer who retired recently plays often , have to stay in shape!
All the best Cora !!!

Hi Cora!

Thanks a lot for the follow. Following you back.
Although I play tennis, never tried PickleBall or even BeachTennis.

I checked a bit about PickleBall and it seems to be fun. It must be also fun for the kids, I guess.

Wish you a lot of fun and a lot of success!

Best regards!

Thank you for the follow, Cora...I did my AirForce tech school in Wichita Falls in 1980 right after the tornado hit there. Someone I met at church there took me to their house and showed me where they were and what was left of it. They crawled into the bathtub which was an interior room, and only that room and one other still had walls left around it... The destruction was unbelievable!
Anyway, I see you have a jumpstart on me... I hope you will reach your goals and can retire and play pickleball!

Welcome Cora,
Here you are embarking upon the journey I envision as a bit of freedom to pursuing a more robust retirement.

My hope is you'll find much success, for as a kindred spirit of travel and culture, I highly suggest discovering the world as truly an amazing adventure.

Pickle Ball is something I'm finding not played up in Northern Mn. but it certainly appears that a lot of people are having a blast doing it...ahhh, but quilting, there is something for the soul of Northern people.

Any way Great to have you on the path and I look forward to reading more of your thoughts and insights from the posts here at WA

Hey Cora,
Thank you for your service in nursing! My wife and I use to own a DME (durable medical equipment) company and know the challenges you face in serving others. She is presently enrolled in a Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach program. Holistic care saved her life 4 years ago and she has wanted to help heal people since she was 6 years old so we are almost to her dream goal. Thank you for the follow, I have followed you back. Only been at this for 2 months now but I am amazed at how much help there is here at WA. If there is anything I can do for you please let me know.
Great to meet you!

Hello Cora ... thank you for the follow. I had never heard of pickleball until it became quite a controversy at our local retirement community here in the wine country. I've played lots of tennis and golf, and while I still play golf I gave up tennis because of sore knees.

Oakmont has 2 great golf courses and 2 tennis complexes, and there is a growing group of folks campaigning for some pickleball courts. The objections seem to be mostly noise. I guess it's noisier than say regular tennis. Have you run into this issue on your pickleball travels?

I wish you the best on your WA journey.

Hello, Cora and thanks for your follow. We follow back.
You sound like a wonderfully optimistic person with a great family.
Rest assured you have found an authentic platform here with great training, tools and community support.
Maybe Pickle Ball could be a good niche for you!

Hi, Ms. Mitchell.
Paul Mindra here from Ontario, Canada.

Thank you for liking something that I said on another's account here The 'Community' interaction is actually quite important here.

I am very pleased to make your acquaintance.

Wichita Falls is a city in and the county seat of Wichita County, Texas, United States.

It is the principal city of the Wichita Falls Metropolitan Statistical Area, which encompasses all of Archer, Clay, and Wichita Counties.

According to the 2010 census, it had a population of 104,553, making it the 35th-most populous city in Texas.

In addition, its central business district is five miles (8 km) from Sheppard Air Force Base which is home to the Air Force's largest technical training wing and the Euro-NATO Joint Jet Pilot Training (ENJJPT) program, the world's only multi-nationally manned and managed flying training program chartered to produce combat pilots for both USAF and NATO.

Holy smokes Cora.

Ontario is one of the 13 provinces and territories of Canada and is located in east-central Canada. It is Canada's most populous province accounting for 38.3 percent of the country's population, and is the second-largest province in total area.

Ontario is fourth-largest in total area when the territories of the Northwest Territories and Nunavut are included. It is home to the nation's capital city, Ottawa, and the nation's most populous city, Toronto, which is also Ontario's provincial capital.

Ontario is sometimes conceptually divided into two regions, Northern Ontario and Southern Ontario. The great majority of Ontario's population and arable land is in the south. In contrast, the larger, northern part of Ontario is sparsely populated with cold winters and heavy forestation.

I have fantastic friends through this community not only in the South but also the North.

Hey. Liston...
I'm not sure why I'm writing so much but I really like your smile and the look of your glasses.

You are blessed,Cora, and we all know it here in our community.

Onward and upward my dearest.

Shine brilliant as in your smile always,Cora.

Peace, Love & Goodwill sent your way from Canada always.

Your host online,
Paul.

Hi Cora, welcome aboard. I was born in Virginia and have live here all my life. I worked at Bell Atlantic for 27years and after that I work as a CNA for about 2years. 1 year in a nursing home and 1year in private duty. Now I'm a substitute teacher, I've been doing this for 19years, I am part owner of a Janitorial Service, my husband and daughter I have been doing this for 30years. So I've been quite busy and now I'm doing this, which is a lot of fun.

Hi, Cora and it's a pleasure to meet you. thanks for adding me to your network. I've one the same.

I hope you are not near any of those terrible fires that are happening in northern California. It's very tragic what is happening there and I pray that the firefighters will get a handle on them soon.

I also wish you great success as you continue this journey and make your dreams come true.

Always Keep Moving Forward,
Wayne

Hi Cora.... just found you on WA... I've worked within the health industry, in admin, New Zealand; and have such admiration for nurses, they are certainly a special kind of person. As I've wanted to help people I wasn't the nurse type so I've gone about it in other ways... promoting health and wellness, green living is my passion. Hope to see you more.

:) Linda

I had to Google Pickle Ball - Shows my age.LOL You sure do look young for a grandmother, must be married to a good man.

Well, here's the post on Pickleball! I'm a day late from my assignment, but I'm just happy it's here! Feel free to comment and give constructive criticism! I would really appreciate it. It's a little under (600) words and I posted it to my blog, on the blog the title and subtitles are in bold letters, but when I copied and pasted it here, the boldness is not there???

Let me know what to do in the future...should I copy and paste here....or just retype it?

The Fun of Pickleball for Seniors

Once you’ve played it, the attraction of pickleball for seniors is clear. It's a fast paced, low-impact sport and anyone who's played a Racket sport like Ping pong, Tennis or Racket ball will quickly get the hang of it. Caution, it will be addicting. Because! the court is small doubles games are the usual. Players run a lot less than in Tennis or Racquetball and pickleball can be played year round inside or out.


Zero, Zero, Start!

When I first started at the local YMCA the players went easy on me. I was a beginner so I was encouraged to practice my serve. I was a tournament ping pong player in my early years so I knew a thing about Slices, back spin, top spin etc. The ground shots came easy for me and I quickly picked it up. The seasoned players however decided to show me a thing or two by playing at the net and either dinking it over the net into the kitchen or slamming a kill shot out of reach.
I picked up the sport quick but had to learn all about playing the net where your money shots really count. 80% of all winning shots are played at the net. The soft touch you must have takes time to master.


Level 2.0

As I became more proficient the higher level players repeatedly soft touched into the kitchen on my backhand side waiting for my mistakes or if I get the ball too high they would slam it over.


Level 3.0

As I became quicker and more competent I sought out facilities who had higher level players. In this way I would be forced to refine my game.
The End Game
Throughout my pickleball journey since starting a year ago, I've met and made many pickleball friends and most are very willing to take time to give you tips on improving your game. For me pickleball is the perfect exercise for my age and my aching joints. I play four or more times a week and cant get enough.


The Gifts

It’s a very active, dynamic sport. Bedside the low impact exercise it also has a strong social aspect since the doubles partner is standing close on the court.
If the game keeps growing especially for seniors thousands of tennis courts around the country could be used for pickleball. I even hear stories about people deciding where to retire based on the local pickleball scene.


Get In The Game

So, grab a paddle and a ball and a partner, call your local YMCA or community recreation center for a pickleball game near you and drop that shot in the kitchen and win that point. You will keep coming back for more.
My husband and I have experienced Pickleball players to be extremely nice, friendly, and helpful....... just a great community of people! We are looking forward to traveling in our RV, following Pickleball tournaments and camps across the United States. Hope to meet you someday on the court!
