Last Fall I had the privilege of performing at the Southern Fried Festival in Columbia, TN. That is where I was introduced to the funnest group of women I have ever met.
These beautiful ladies, all over the age of 50, had one thing in common. They all had a zest for life! And the second thing they had in common was that they were all wearing red hats of all shapes, sizes and styles, along with red and purple attire. They were flashier than Elvis! I loved those women because they were just like me.
"The Red Hat Society began as a result of a few women deciding to greet middle age with verve, humor and elan. We believe silliness is the comedy relief of life, and since we are all in it together, we might as well join red-gloved hands and go for the gusto together. Underneath the frivolity, we share a bond of affection, forged by common life experiences and a genuine enthusiasm for wherever life takes us next." - Sue Ellen Cooper, Queen Mother,
Red Hat Society
They were fun and zany. But they weren't crazy.
