We are moving…the blog that is. It seems IT has found us a new and better server—so move away. This will all take place starting Monday morning and will interrupt our posts for a few days. The new location will make our lives much easier—I love easier don’t you. Thank you for your patience. Enjoy …
Vacation is not a word we hear a lot these days, but I am going to take you on a little virtual vacation with me to France, Spain and Portugal—BC (Before Corona.) Travel to the coast and take in the blue water and salty air, and then dip your toes in the water. Imagine enjoying …
