Reading, camping, and spending time with my family. I also enjoy traveling.

I am a widow with 3 adult children and 17 Grandchildren. I thoroughly enjoy showing the world to my family and watching knowledge grow within them. We spend vast amounts of time camping and fishing. 


I also enjoy getting lost in a book, to broaden my horizons.
