Cheers to all women who follow the beat of their own drum. Especially when it was not so easy. Like back in 1832. Now 190 years later, we celebrate 2022 March Women’s History Month and salute the women who moved mountains. For themselves and for all women.

I started thinking what if all these earth-shattering, unique, and one-of-a-kind historical women like Susan B.

(The Stone Poneys) because this line says it all…then, now & always.
