At 100 years old, Seattle’s Eleanor Owen lives on her own in her big, old house. She drives, she’s not on a single medication, and she’s sharp, with an enviable memory. Her 100th birthday was in January and because of the quarantine, like so many others, she had to have her party over Zoom.
“I have 300 birthday cards, if not more, that I haven’t opened yet! They sent me 100 roses from which my son and I are now making wine. My son and my husband had done it when he was a kid,” Owen said. “If you were here, you would find an aroma in the house of something fermenting.”
