Chicago 2007

Three days in Chicago, May 7-9. The city gets better looking every time I return; each time it's harder for me to leave.

Not too shabby

I walked across the Golden Gate Bridge today, seventeen days short of my 74th birthday. Then continued walking to a bus stop to get into Sausalito; took the ferry back to SF; had enough evergy to meet Robin and go out for dinner. Not too bad, for an old lady.

Were you carrying an Olympic torch as you walked?

To me, you're still a kid.

Thanks for the note. I like it too. And rereading your last entry......nope, not shabby at all. Bravo.

I know many half your age who won't even walk to the mailbox. Keep on truckin' Ruthe! And happy early birthday.

What I really look like

Looking at obituaries of famous people who have died in their nineties but have photos showing them in their forties or fifties I have often thought about the question of what age really represents us. It's a dumb question. Obviously the age I am today is who I am. But, just for fun, I've put together some photos of me at different ages. You can see who I am and who I used to be.
