Bio
Most at home near water. and mountains. and family. I love drinking tea, preferably while reading an interesting book. I like learning new things, lovely art, history, children, gardening...good conversation among friends. a kind smile. a wicked grin, for that matter. feeling serene..........and road trips are fun, too. I guess that's a few interests, not really a bio...you'll have to read some posts for a glimpse there.
