About Me





I like trees, and church steeples, and open windows, I like doors with archways, and gargoyles, I like stone cathedrals, and the wind on my face. I like art that makes me remember. I like the scent of people, places, and things. I like running through sprinklers on a hot day, and I like sharp knives. I like to giggle. I like meeting new people. I like to fish. I even like mowing the yard.

And last, but not least, my grandchildren are the cutest AND the sweetest.

P.S. For the record, there are turtles at Wapato Lake.

My Interests

I like collecting buttons, blue willow patterned china, delft blue, and anything cloisonne, I love tattoos, sawsalls and boat dreaming with BB, devil duckies, warm socks, and hot cups of coffee, and our little fur balls of joy; Elliott, Sawsall, and Maggie. Oh, and I really like bats. The flying kind that is.

*Gary Moore *Queensryche*I like Godsmack, but they sound a little too much like Alice in Chains, and there should only ever be one Alice in Chains
