Many tour companies are creating experiences for the solo traveler. (Courtesy Road Scholar/Alyssa Bichunsky)This summer, WTOP took you on a tour and explored how adults 50 and older are spending their travels.This fall, Sally Matts is going to Spain. Since her retirement as a human resources professional, the Waldorf, Maryland, woman has become an avid traveler, going on several trips in the U.S. and abroad.“Don’t wait,” said Matts, 71, who is an ambassador with Road Scholar, an organization that specializes in travel for those 50 and older. “Don’t think you can keep putting things off, because you never know.”One thing she said she wished she did more of was travel with her husband, who passed away in his early 60s.“I was still working, and I feel bad that I can’t be traveling with him. I kind of wish we had traveled more,” Matts said. “It would have been nicer if we’re still able to do stuff together. Do some of these trips together.”While Matts wishes she had a travel...The spotlight in the Alabama-Texas game will be squarely on the 2 QBs, Quinn Ewers and Jalen Milroe

Jalen Milroe’s first coveted jersey growing up in Texas was Vince Young’s No. 10. Nowadays, he is apt to end his media interviews with an enthusiastic “Roll Tide.”Quinn Ewers lifted Longhorns fans’ hopes that they had found another star passer like Young or Colt McCoy with his dazzling start in last year’s Alabama game.Milroe, the third-ranked Crimson Tide’s dynamic new starting quarterback, and Ewers of No. 11 Texas will lead their teams into Saturday night’s showdown at Bryant-Denny Stadium. Not Young, Bryce or Vince.“Vince Young is someone I did watch, as far as highlights,” said Milroe, who is from Katy, Texas, outside Houston. “My family loved Vince Young. Growing up, I was always a Vince Young fan. He was my first jersey that I bought.”Like that Young or Milroe’s predecessor, No. 1 NFL draft pick Bryce Young, quarterbacks at these programs will ultimately be judged by how they perform in games like this one.Milroe especially hasn’t been tested on this stage before, though he d...Injured Man United midfielder Sofyan Amrabat pulls out of Morocco squad for African Cup qualifying

TOULOUSE, France (AP) — Rookie flanker Kanji Shimokawa will make his first start for Japan against Rugby World Cup debutant Chile on Sunday in Toulouse.Shimokawa was picked ahead of Shota Fukui, who started against Italy in the last warmup two weeks ago, and in the absence of Pieter Labuschagne, who was suspended for this match.Shimokawa has less than 80 minutes of test rugby but impressed off the bench against New Zealand in October and Fiji in August.Japan’s second row issues appear to have been resolved by Amato Fakatava, who starred in the Pacific Nations Cup and quickly overcame a foot injury to be a late selection, and Jack Cornelsen, who has been a back-rower for club and country this year but was restored to lock against Italy.Rikiya Matsuda has the No. 10 jersey after playing behind Yu Tamura at the 2019 home World Cup and then was overtaken this year by Seungsin Lee.Semisi Masirewa at fullback, and Kotaro Matsushima, on the right wing, have swapped positions.Keita In...Brock Purdy’s wild NFL ride leads to a Week 1 start at QB for 49ers

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Brock Purdy has been on quite a ride since entering the NFL as the final pick of the 2022 draft.Purdy worked his way onto the San Francisco 49ers’ roster as a rookie, then went on a storybook late-season run when forced into action by injuries only to sustain a serious injury to his throwing elbow in the NFC championship game.Now after a grueling offseason of rehabilitation and building back his arm strength, Purdy is set to start his second season in the NFL as the starting quarterback for one of the Super Bowl favorites. “Honestly, there’s some moments where I’m able to sort of step back and be thankful for everything and whatnot, but at the same time it’s like, man, there’s a lot in front of me that I’m trying to handle and prepare for,” Purdy said Thursday. “Obviously with this game coming up and then really this whole offseason it’s been about my arm, getting it right, getting healthy, so I’m … not trying to get caught up in to...Takoma Park toy store focuses on ‘the playful at heart’
