Been taking a drawing class at the senior center. And loving it. Never drew a thing in my life except stick figures. Now I have progressed. Lots of fun!

I would’ve given you four or five stars but often times you play hard rock and rap music at six or 7 AM in the morning when the average age of your attendees is in the low 70s. FM 105.7 seems to be more age-appropriate.

Some hard maneuvering during the fix up but overall worth the wait. Only real probable are the treadmills on the 2nd floor. Some of the television shows are missing, i.e. business report.
