On a trip south we visited the Stephen Foster Museum. The house and museum is located in the Stephen Foster Folk Culture Center Park on the banks of the legendary Suwannee River.

On January 26, 1837 the state of Michigan became the 26th state in the United States of America. That makes the state 182.

What a year 2020 was! Coronavirus – and all the uncertainty and problems that has created. Loss of jobs/income, loss of ability to travel freely to name just a few. Division over wearing a mask or not wearing one. The election also brought such division and unrest. The arguments over BLM. We were looking forward […]
It’s that time again! Off our children and grandchildren go to school. School used to be a pretty safe place to be. In my generation many of us walked to school and back and no one worried about us being harmed in our walk. School was one of the safest places children could be. Sadly, […]
March 22 was a day I will never forget! My husband had fallen a few days before that, got a lump on his head. The lump went down after a couple of hours and he felt okay. Because of the coronavirus and all the conflicting reports we heard, he decided it did not require him […]
