- Age 15:She looks at herself and sees an Ugly Step-Sister
Age 20: She looks at herself and sees "too fat/too thin, too short/too tall, too straight/too curly" but decides to fix herself up as best she can and go out anyway. - Age 30: She looks at herself and sees "too fat/too thin, too short/too tall, too straight/too curly" and decides she doesn't have time to fix it but she's going out anyway.
- Age 40: She looks at herself and sees "too fat/too thin, too short/too tall, too straight/too curly" but says, "At least I'm clean" and goes out anyway.
- Age 50: She looks at herself and sees "I am" and goes wherever she wants to go.
- Age 60: She looks at herself and thinks of all those who can't even see themselves in the mirror anymore and goes out and conquers the world.
- Age 70: She looks at herself and sees wisdom, laughter, and ability, goes out and enjoys life.
- Age 80: She doesn't bother to look. Just puts on a red hat and goes out to have fun with the world.
. . . Maybe we should all have grabbed that red hat earlier!.

7/27/19 - Day at Vicky's Camp - The Glitzy Chicks Olympics
Date: 7/27/19 - Saturday
Time: 11am-5:30pm
A Note from Vicky. She wanted to share this information with everyone,
"I have reserved the full pavilion area so if we have lousy weather, we can still eat, and play under cover of the pavilion. Folks should think of it as a day (full day) trip unless they want to either camp over at the campground (I will reserve two or three sites for Friday and/or Saturday if I know there is interest) or they can think about staying overnight nearby in North Creek, Warrensburg, or Schroon Lake. ( in Schroon Lake I suggest the Adirondack Inn- a little pricey but extremely clean and cozy. Also, They have a suite that will sleep up to six or eight, I believe. PLANNING FOR JUST THE DAY TRIP IS JUST FINE. The only caution that I have is for people to understand that driving in the hills at night can be an adventure with twists turns dark and critters! So as long as they plan ahead to drive back before dark ( whether home or to a hotel) they’ll be fine. I just need to hear from folks via email, text or phone call if they can make it and if they will need a space at a camp site. two or three tents can use the same site . Go to the web site for Town of Minerva, Donnelly Beach Campground for more info and photos. I look forward to sharing this part of the Adirondacks with anyone who can make it!!!!! "
Please let Vicky know if you plan to attend and whether you will be sleeping over and want to use part of a camp site or if you will be coming up just for the day.
Vicky and her Olympics Committee have a lot of fun events planned, It will be an Olympic Theme and Vicky assures us that we all will be able to participate in the fun she has planned for the day events.
