Reading, exercising, camping, volunteering, gardening and candle making

I've always enjoyed reading mystery novels by James Patterson.  It's my go to author when looking for short but thrilling and suspense novels. I love the outdoors and spend alot of my free time outside in my patio listening to music and working on my flower garden. I recently started creating beautiful scented candles for fun and to gift to family and friends as presents on holidays and birthdays.  I love to volunteer out in the community and have done so at Nursing Homes, Food Banks and 5K marathons. As for camping, I like the tranquility and freedom out in nature.  Gives me time to unwind and disconnect from everyday life.
