My Friend Betty

I've really come to love this woman, Betty.

She came into my life by way of an old album from the early 50's that I found
in an antique mall. The album belonged to Ruth. I tried to find Ruth, but found Betty instead.

And much to my delight... Betty is a wonderful, vibrant, life-loving woman in her late 70's now.. but you'd never know it.. she's as spunky as those pictures show...

She cracks me up!

Betty and I email each other fairly often. She always ends her emails with "Cheers"...

Look to my old posts for more heartwarming BETTY stories... she's a keeper!

This is Betty and some of her friends. Betty's sitting next to the gentleman.

That's Ruth & Betty's friend Myrt on her head.

Ruth lounging, looking lovely and probably AFTER she did dinner clean up.
Ruth had a lot of potluck suppers, in her apartment.

I want to know what they're eating in this photo, above.

Cheers, ladies!
