Aruba. I know that you all are waiting for photos from my trip to Aruba. They are coming. I promise. Photography. I'm clearing out computer space to import them. My laptop is already full and there's the moving of things to an external hard drive. I shot all my photos in RAW this time. I [...]

Going Back To My Roots. An Ancestral Journey to Airdrie, Scotland. Today is my mama's birthday!! The one who nurtured me in her womb. And the one who labored to bring me into this world. The one who cradled me in her arms. She is the one who whispered words of strength into my [...]
Friday. Edition 31. Hurricane. This week has been a blur. If you read my post on Monday then you know that my family in Naples was affected by Hurricane Irma, but that they are all safe. Facebook. I don't spend much time on my personal Facebook page. When I do visit it, I usually [...]
