Marvelous photos from Sally Bedell Smith’s Facebook page
“Even as new security barriers went up at Windsor Castle following last week’s terror attack at the Houses of Parliament, the Queen and Prince Philip were determined to get out today and do what they both enjoy so much: she rode one of her Fell Ponies in Windsor Home Park with two of her grooms, and he drove one of his four-in-hand carriages into town. At nearly 91 and 96, their vigor never ceases to amaze!”

Five years out

August 4, 2016 Thursday

Wow… can’t believe it’s been five years since I finished treatment for breast cancer.  After 9 months of “going to the doctor too much” through diagnosis, two surgeries, chemo and radiation – I was finally done.  And now I’ve survived for five years, when the risk factors go way down!  Whoohoo!

HELP! Winter Vacation Suggestions

August 1, 2016 Monday

Good morning Dear Readers!

Hope your summer is going well. Or whatever season it is where you are. 🙂

I need your help. Please give me your expert vacation advice!

Let’s say a nice man asked me to meet him somewhere warm in January or February with great restaurants, fun attractions to see and a waterfront hotel with a balcony or a rental house with a water view. I’m thinking the Southern U.S. – Sanibel? Miami? The Florida Keys? New Orleans? Phoenix? I haven’t been on many winter vacations and may be missing a wonderful answer.

Where would you recommend?  Hotels?  Restaurants? Sites to see?  Chocolate shops??

Please comment below or email me (click on the same sassy girl link next to my cleavage on the upper right, and it takes you to my profile with my email link on the left!)

Thanks for any clues!
