For Women's History Month I am highlighting older women bloggers. It appears to me that there is a growing trend among older folks to produce their own personal blogs on a myriad of subjects.
Highlighted below are three women bloggers that between them cover just about every subject under the sun. The things they have in common are; they are witty, wise, and write professional posts on informative subjects. Their ages range from near seventy into the eighties.
June

Living on Cape Cod, June's posts share her artistic pursuits through music and art such as quilting. Also she has a deep grasp of literature and is constantly digging up excellent authors for review -- some known and some not that well known. Her ruminations on thought provoking subjects are all part of her reportoire. Click here for a visit to Big Photo taken from Big 7-0 & more

Darlene tells it like it is when it comes to important issues. She writes on national politics in a witty yet pointedly firm way. She stays on top of what is going on in our nation. On occasion she mixes in a bit of family and daily events. Always something of interest is running through Darlene's posts. Click here to enjoy Darlene's Hodgepodge blog.

Ronni Bennett serves up a daily menu of information about living wisely as an older person. She has been posting Time Goes By since 2003. I consider her an online pioneer in addressing the subject of growing older in a positive light. Her subjects cover the whole spectrum of aging -- social issues, retirement, health and much more. It is refreshing to read a blog that highlights aging as a privilege to be enjoyed. Click here to read her posts.
These women are setting fine examples for older bloggers. Their dedication to this form of "spreading their words," tells us that activism at any age is profound.
