The Old Days

Way back in the olden days of computers, before I was a grandma, when we still had 5 and 3 inch floppy disks, when the years were numbered starting with 19, this was the first movie I saw on a computer. I needed to smile today and it still worked.


Scarf or Skates?

Ah holiday knitting! The joy! The decisions! The choices! The love in every stitch! The kindness of those who humor us!

Veteran's Day 2010

To all who have served or are serving their country taking one day of the year to say thank you seems so little. Your service and sacrifices mean so much to many who may never realize day to day how you touch lives without ever meeting them in person.

For answering a call to duty and risking and sometimes giving the ultimate, thank you.

Hello There!

Well hello there. It has been awhile since I last posted. The month of October had lots of travel in it so I didn't pay attention to this blog but I am back now.

I got to spend time in Utah last month to see some of the family there. From Salt Lake we drove up to Jackson WY and spent a few days exploring that fantastic little town. We also went to Pennsylvania and saw a lot of Jim's family and see a bit of the fall color which I was told was past its peak but still looked pretty to me.



There were some firsts for me on this trip. I got to see New York City and the Hudson River. It was from an airplane window on the way to landing in Newark to make a connection to Scranton. I had never been in New Jersey either. Does the airport count? Coming home we went from Scranton to Detroit to Phoenix. Have you ever been in the Detroit airport? I was very impressed. The coolest part was a long walkway that had a light show and music. Going through it you felt calmer with every step or at least I did. The pictures I got aren't the greatest but will give you an idea of what I saw.

Until next time.
