Yes, for women over fifty, or, for that matter, most anyone of any age, modern travel isn’t easy. I just returned from a week’s trip to the heartland visiting my relatives and, although I had a wonderful time, the going wasn’t easy.
To start, I awoke at 3:45 a.m. to give myself enough time to shower [...]

When was the last time you turned on the TV to find a face looking back at you that resembled your own? Yes, there are a few, but the names of these actresses no longer appear at the top of the credits. Even if they are series regulars, they usually play supporting roles: mothers, grandmothers, [...]

When was the last time you were proud of your age? If you’re thinking decades ago, I might suggest you make a slight shift in attitude. As baby boomer women, we are making fifty and better THE age to be!
There are lots of reasons for this. For starters, we represent the first generation whose female [...]

Okay, the baby boomers may not have been our country’s “Greatest Generation.” Tom Brokaw already awarded that distinction to our parents and few would argue with his choice. Nevertheless, I doubt that many could deny that we represent history’s “Grooviest Generation” and this accolade is of no small consequence.
