Places I've been
I've traveled to Canada, Mexico, England, Ireland, France, Italy, Australia, and New Zealand, and most of the states. But have never moved more than 15 miles from where I was born and raised! My dream is to move "down south" now that I'm retired.

More about me

About me.... I am single and enjoying retirement.  I have two beautiful daughters 29 and 32. On March 30, 2009 I became a grandmother for the first time, Dean Ryan. My oldest daughter has moved back home with me temporarily until she finds a house to buy; and her sister lives in Brooklyn. I own a Corgi dog, Bailey, who is the King of the House, and a parakeet who sings to me every morning. I like to garden, kayak, read, hike, ski, travel and occasional camping. House remodeling is also a passion, along with community and volunteer service. I ski in the winter and swim in the summer, love the out-of-doors and the ocean. I am active in my Episcopal church. Hope to see you here on Eons...it's great fun and I've made some wonderful friends.
