Elders on the Run is a light-hearted tale that speaks to both our human spirit, as well as our folly.

Elders on the Run is a light-hearted tale that speaks to both our human spirit, as well as our folly. By hinting at our human peculiarities, Elders on the Run strives to teach that through us, the universe speaks, that we have the opportunity to give voice to the cosmos, to tell its story, to be its imagination. Once described as similar to A Confederacy of Dunces, this story follows quirky characters and even quirkier adventures. Along the way, we watch the haphazard life of Norton and Chub, an odd duo who quickly find themselves in trouble. After their sentencing, Norton and Chub learn that they are in a nursing home unlike any other. Dave Spring's is federally funded, constantly guarded and surrounded by razor wire. Here, the residents don't feel like residents. No one chose to be here. Everyone is court ordered. They feel like prisoners, and in many respects, that's what they are. Follow Norton and Chub as they try to understand. Will they rise above the situation? Will they see the better side of it? Quotes from the Book "At thirty thousand feet and still rising, they could see that the earth was no longer flat, its curvature spread across long sloping horizons. Through intermittent patches of clouds and the shadows they bestowed, rivers meandered towards vast seas of blue and a hundred hues of green were splashed across the land. An eerie darkness hovered above them, de-void of any hope and standing in sharp contrast to the oasis beneath them." "There, the four old men stood gazing into infinity, the sky an inky black and checkered with clouds, a crescent moon peaking through only occasionally, teasing their human appetite for beauty." "I'd never launch from Bali or the Swedish Alps," Duffy advised. "Misjudge the wind and you're dead." "There was a tank on the desk with some coral and a dead goldfish floating at the surface. Norton wondered if he should tell the Warden his fish was dead." "When Arm Pitt moved in they had to take the ceiling fan out of his room. That mark on his forehead is from one of the blades. He's tall and big and sweats half his weight a day. Probably doesn't help he no longer has a ceiling fan. Arm Pitts nickname caught on exceptionally fast. Perhaps due to every-one being under the impression I was, that if we called him Arm Pitt he might actually start using deodorant."
