Once again I hit the wrong "reply" button; this is for DJ2.

Take the "senior" discount and run! Some of them start as early as age 55, and most others at 62.

The biggest bargain of all is the Golden Age Pass (now renamed the Senior Pass)--$10 for a lifetime pass. That saves me $30 per year for the NW Forest Pass, required out here for nearly all trailhead parking. It gives me free admission to national parks and half price on national park and most national forest campgrounds (a few concessionaires won't accept it). Starts at 62. I figure it's my due after all those years of paying taxes (not that that process stopped at retirement....).

I personally hate the terms "senior" and "golden age." I would prefer something like "fine wine"--aged to perfection! But nobody asked me!
