More about me

I am an eternal optimist and still just a Kansas Country Girl in my heart - and always will be no matter where I live. My first passion (other than family and friends) is my garden. All winter I long to start digging in the  dirt and see my garden flourish. I love to read - especially Elizabethan history. I love antiques - glassware and jewelry. For some reason I have a huge owl collection - and please don't ask me how that one got started.
Looking to interact with people from all over with similar interests, and would love to hear from fellow Kansans!

Been down the martial aisle a few times - 3rd time's a charm

Activities

I have to dig in the dirt - it was born and bred into me! Love gardening. I am working on my family history with narratives from as many family members as possible. In the summer I sit/lay in my porch swing and play with the dog.

Favorite Quotes

Favorite Animals

Having had a farm, I had everything but cows. Raised quarter horses and rode frequently back then. The last time I rode was in Alabama - my nieces horses. Have had pitbulls for years and think there's no bad dogs - just bad owners.
