Nominate a Glam-ma!

If you are or know of a woman who fits the portrait of a Glam-ma, she will be entered into the Glamgal/Glam-ma contest and be interviewed by me for possible inclusion on my website and/or blog. Eventually there will be a drawing for a free weekend at my Hilton Head beach house (well to be accurate, it's not on the beach itself but it is on a fabulous marsh and walking distance to the golf club in Wexford Plantation). Transportation isn't included but it's easy to drive or fly there.

Who is a Glam-ma?
* Baby Boomer (okay to be born before '45 though)
* Fun, funny, & loves life.
* Looking to explore the next phase of life with gusto.
* Wants to connect to other glam-ma's and share stories/ideas and adventures.
* Feels good about herself and doesn't care if she's a size six. It's okay if she is however. Her friends come in all sizes, shapes and colors.
* Loves to shop, travel, eat, read and share.

Send entries to me at glamgal.judith@gmail.com

Carl Kurlander and friends have written and are producing "A Tale of Two Cities" documentary of Pittsburgh and its past... Carl and his past and the future of both. Check out the website. We're hoping it makes it to Sundance and wins. Our son Ross came in from California to work on the film. And thousands of Pittsburg natives have gathered in New York, LA and Pittsburgh to be filmed singing "It's A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood."
