Celebrating Our Country’s Birthday 

With July 4th kicking off warmer weather, I set a patriotic party table to celebrate our nation’s birthday and grilled some hot dogs and hamburgers.  I also served corn on the cob and Boston baked beans. I won’t be having a dinner party for the next couple of months while I’m in Italy and Greece to do research for upcoming books. However, I’ll be sending you a newsletter with pictures from my adventures. For more detailed information about my day-to-day activities, be sure to follow me on Facebook.

Springtime in Colorado

I took a road trip to Crested Butte with my friends Nancy and Barb last weekend (that’s me and Barb in the picture, which Nancy took) and saw something I’ve never seen before in Colorado . . . a lush green landscape from record-breaking snowfall and spring rains. The wildflowers are spectacular right now and haven’t even peaked. Our drive included a stop for lunch along the Arkansas River in Salida, a small mountain town with some of the best whitewater rafting on the planet.
