At what age does life as you have lived it end? Is there a set time dictated by society that rules over a still potent desire to live life as you would like? Does being older require a certain demureness and impose a dignified style of existence upon oneself? Are there separate rules for women? Perhaps. Lady Margaret doesn't think so. Her husband George's occupation, an armament supplier for the U.S. Government, has given them an exciting and often exotic life. They worked clandestinely with the CIA, allowing them to build up a vast fortune and develop diplomatic contacts throughout the world. They were in love, but at times each had been involved in private liaisons along the way. There was just too much wealth and intrigue not to enjoy it. The nice part was that each of them accepted the temporary nature of the affairs, and the frivolity of the circumstances. Times changed. Lady Margaret has turned seventy. She has been a widow for five years. Lady Margaret wants to go out of life with a bang, not a whimper. She moves to a posh residence in the city to assure changes in her life. Nob Hill, the historic center of San Francisco, gives her access to the eclectic diversity that characterizes the city. She is near Union Square, North Beach, the financial district, and has a view of Huntington Park. How life changes for Lady Margaret, with the unwitting assistance of her son, provides for some interesting and humorous answers to the questions previously posed.
