About Me

Myspace Backgrounds

Photography has been a strong interest of mine for many years, and is even more fun now with a Canon digital 35mm camera!

I also very much enjoy gardening--even the weeding, dead-heading, trimming, etc. It's a never-ending process! For mental stimulation, I work crossword puzzles, read, and edit digital photos on our computer. I acquired two new hobbies in the last couple of years: family ancestry (mostly online) and scrapbooking.

My husband and I have been happily married since 2001 and love to travel in our motorhome. We visit family and friends in different parts of the country, and also see as many interesting sites as we can along the way. My personal travel goal is to see as many of the National Parks and Monuments as we can!
