Edna Henner celebrates her 100th birthday today.

 Family friend Bob Widmar helps Edna Henner before he took her on her first motorcycle ride last weekend in celebration of her 100th birthday.



Edna Henner makes living a century seem like a walk in the park.

“I'd like to start all over again,” the Carson City woman said Tuesday with a hearty laugh.
She's spent a lifetime living her bucket list, and the days surrounding her birthday are no exception.
For her 85th she took flight in a hot air balloon.
For her 90th she rode an elephant in Taiwan.
On her 95th she learned to tango.
And this past Saturday, Henner, a retired Southern California college professor of fashion and interior design, donned a helmet and leather jacket and went for a spin on the back of a friend's motorcycle around her Lakeview Estates neighborhood.

Today, Henner will hit the 100-year mark with a quiet celebration at the home she shares with her daughter, Marcy Swingholm, son-in-law James Swingholm and James' mother. On Oct. 24, a celebration will be held at the Comstock Mobile Home Park community center. The public is invited, said her daughter.
“Anyone who'd like to honor her by coming to the party is more than welcome,” Marcy said.

Until recently, Henner was taking classes at Western Nevada College. A Spanish immersion course took her to Mexico. The WNC geology class prompted a trip to Hawaii to see a volcano. She is interested now in astronomy. She and James attended a digital photography class together.
