The National Women’s History Project, whose mission it is champion the accomplishments of women like Sotomayor and her ilk and lead the drive to write women back into history, is auctioning off getaway trips anyone would love. Some items on the list: a week at Laguna Shores, a weekend a Lake Tahoe (no whammies!), a weekend retreat at the base of Mt. Hood, Oregon, and a host of other female-power trinkets and prizes.
