  Real Cougar Woman Gayle Keck is today's Valentine Month spotlight guest. This freelance travel and food writer says, "I met my husband on an airplane, 13+ years ago when I was 40. I'm 14 years older than he is. The interesting thing was, I thought he was older; he thought I was younger. We've been married for 10 blissful years. I'm an unintentional Cougar - but I love it!"
  
  Gayle, who has traveled in over 35 countries and across six continents, writes frequently for the Washington Post and Los Angeles Times, as well as the San Francisco Chronicle Magazine, Christian Science Monitor, Denver Post, Seattle Times and New Orleans Times-Picayune. She currently writes a monthly column for the Washington Post travel section. Her story, “Onionskin,” was selected for the book, Best Travelers’ Tales 2004. Click to read more about Gayle.
  
  We'd love to hear from other REAL COUGARS, too!...Bonnie & Linda

  Today we continue Real Cougar Valentine Month with special guest Judy Pugh , author of "Reporting for Doodie – One Grandmother's Story of Commitment, Frustration & Unwavering Love”. Judy is surprised to be a REAL COUGAR: "I am 51 years young...becoming a Cougar was quite unplanned. After a very unexpected divorce, I reinvented myself (so much so that I was asked to be on the Oprah Show) and as a result, started attracting men younger than me...Joys: The obvious. Challenges: They're not used to a woman who doesn't want anything from them, has her own home, actually knows how to cook a great meal...doesn't expect them to pay for me to get my nails done, etc." Tune in when Judy and Ryan, her 36-year-old guy, talk about the Real Cougar Woman lifestyle.
