I came across this interesting woman, Ruth Hamilton, yesterday, and now I can't remember where. Perhaps you've looked at my various links and seen the link to the oldest blogger -- well Ruth was even older -- 109, imagine! And embracing new technology!
If you want to see and listen to a woman, born in 1898, who was the first women elected to the legislature in New Hampshire, who was one of the first women to have a radio talk show, who taught diction to movie stars, have fun perusing this site for more of her.
I'm always on the look out for people who lead interesting lives as they age -- and for the ones that younger people gravitate toward because they have a zest for life that is contagious. If you play around at the site, you will find her eulogy and also information about a book she wrote as well as excerpts. It's fun listening to her talk about God. For example, she asks God why she has lived so long, and all she hears is, "Shut up!"
Who do you know who might qualify as another Ruth? I'd love to have more real life stories of real men and women who are living vibrant lives as they get older.
