Oh, Pam - you can still learn! There are books for adult students, and teachers who specialize in teaching adults. It'd be too long a weekly commute for you all the way up here, but my sister specializes in adult beginners - in fact sometimes she'll be teaching the parent in one room, and her husband will be instructing the child in another room - or vice versa. They never use the same book for the adult and the child, so there's no "competition" between generations of learners!
