More about me

I presently live in southern California and love the warm and sunny weather!   I am a perpetual and lifelong learner who at the present time is trying to polish my Spanish language skills.   I love the ocean, good music, champagne on ice,  and  snuggling with my  "Special  Someone"...  I  have three grown and married children and a bunch of  wonderful grandchildren..  My children  all  live in  California and  that's one of the reasons I wanted to stay here close to them. . .
