I am a 61 year old female who is the Queen of her own Red Hat group. I am a native Californian, from Orange County, who came to Florida with my husband in 1992. We bought a 'vacation' condo on the beach and later decided that, when we sold our business, we wanted to retire here. We now live in a high rise that overlooks Estero Bay and the Gulf of Mexico.

I was an English major at Cal State Fullerton and had planned on going on to graduate school in Library Science at USC; however, life got in the way. I have always LOVED to read, and really appreciate the fact that now I can read whatever I want, whenever I want!

We love to travel, and have been on numerous cruises. My favorites were on Crystal Cruise Line. A Holland America cruise to Alaska was also great. We travel back and forth to CA several times a year, to visit family and old friends. With all the problems the state is having, I am glad that we no longer live there. « less
