I've probably not chronicled here the extremes of my mom's love for Star Trek. But, she is both a free spirit and a devoted Trekkie, even having braved a Las Vegas convention in her 70s. Her checks have images from the original series, she of course has taped every show of every Trek franchise at least once, and her TV is tuned to Spike more often than not.
The fact that her dedication has lasted well into her 80s is no doubt enough to set her apart from most of the rest of both the fan pack and the octogenarian crowd. This week, however, I dare suggest she's solidified her unique position as Most Devoted 87-Year Old Star Trek Fan. Ever.
Pictures are worth 1000 words. In this case, maybe 10,000.
You go girl!

Thank you so much for sharing this! Your mother made my day!
I love this on so many levels!
I am so darn proud of her for being the free spirit she is.
Dare I even try to emulate her uniqueness?
Not sure if it is possible.
Midge - you rock!
