  • Happy birthday, Grandmommy!

    Today would have been my grandmother's 111th or 110th birthday. We're not exactly sure. You see when she was born, you didn't get a birth certificate. It wasn't until she was in her 40s that she had to go to the courthouse and get her...

  • Island Time

    Aloha! I'm back from vacation but am still trying to get back in the groove. I think I like the laid back feel of the islands better than the rush-rush of my everyday world. I spent plenty of time on the beach, just lazing beneath the sun and reading...
