Life is good

Spring was full of travel to warm, sunny, beachy locales.  Summer keeps bringing long weekends at the lake house in Northern Wisconsin with friends and family.  90th birthday for my Mom in St. Louis, visits from kids, Brewers baseball, impromptu parties, fun clients (authors) and charming hometown festivals.  This weekend it is a ViP invite to the EAA with Congressmen Vernon Ehlers and Tom Petri.  I can only say, thank you for the many blessings!

Caribbean Delights

Just returned from a langorous cruise on a luxurious ship.  Room service breakfast on our personal veranda, endless blue water, lilting Caribbean accents, sensuous food, beautiful surroundings, lovely people and all in a floating palace with a perpetual 85* and soft breezes.  Sigh...
