Fun times!
In our blog series, What Is Your Story, we feature amazing resident journeys—and Carol Christensen’s story is one to remember!
In 1959, Carol led a group through Central Europe, eventually hitching an unexpected ride on a Rhine River barge with two friends, thanks to some friendly locals and a spirit of adventure. It was an unforgettable journey filled with improvised communication, scenic riverside views, and a welcoming barge family who gave her a unique glimpse into life on the river. 🛳️🌍
Today, Carol’s life at The Woodlands is just as rich and full of stories. From connecting with friends online to enjoying our wooded trails, Carol embodies our never retire spirit.
