NORTHERN CALLIFORNIA
Margot, I discovered your blog a short time ago and I am amazed at its comprehensiveness. Your travels are wonderful, the reading challenges you have made for yourself (and others)are impressive, and the way you have organized your blog make it very user friendly. My husband and I, too, are retired, live in Kansas City, Mo. and have been to the Truman home and library. I began a blog on January 1, 2010. I am compiling, word for word, the diaries I kept as an Iowa farm girl who went to Park College in suburban Kansas City, from 1961 to 1965.
Hi Margot – I came here today by way of Nan’s blog at Hill Farm. Your blog header is so beautiful – it looks like where I live in Canada. I guess northern Washington and southern British Columbia are a lot alike
Hoping your ‘favorite places’ become clickable soon. Many of the ones you mention are my favorites also
Are you still RVing? no thoughts of settling down?
Hi Margot,
One of my favorite places in the states is Garden of the Gods in Colorado. It’s beautiful. I wish I could get out and travel again, but I’m always working. lol
Maybe some day I can visit some of your favorite places.
Sandy
