Places I've been

Central City KY (Hometown), I have been to England and Scotland twice. I want to retire to Scotland, it is so beautiful there. I also have been to several states and have enjoyed them all. I would eventually like to visit them all. I really love Stone Mountain GA and have been to the Highland Games there several times.

I love to read, participate in competition shooting, riding my motorcycle, blogging, and just generally having fun. I am looking for work, and it's not easy at my age. I love to meet new people. I have a strange sense of humor and am at the age where I'm not afraid to show it! ha ha

A favorite quote to explain things:

" SHE IS TOO FOND OF BOOKS, AND IT HAS ADDLED HER BRAIN"
LOUISA MAY ALCOTT

I also have a great love of Scotland. I have been there twice and have not wanted to come back. I feel such a kinship with the place. I wish I could find a job there or at least be able to retire and move there. My ashes will make it there, even if I don't get to make it back while I'm still breathing--hee hee.

Give a listen to the Celtic harp. I find it very soothing. Of course, there is nothing like the skirl of bagpipes to really get my blood going.
