My first post…

On a cool March night a few years ago, I walked down my street to get some fresh air.  It was close to 9 PM and the moon was bright.  No neighborhood is without issues, but I live in a place that’s similar to Mayberry in the old Andy Griffith series.  By similar I mean tree lined streets, sidewalks, neighbors who know and take care of one another and an idyllic park across the street.  After finishing my walk, I returned home and ran upstairs to my library.  I sat and thought of books and beautiful things, opened up a novel and began to read.  Welcome to my blog.  There are so many wonderful things to talk about and I will be sharing them here: books, flowers, travel, recipes, life after age 55 and so many more things.  Come along for the journey…
