Follow me as I continue my travel adventures. Saturday, February 23, 2013. Here I sit on the beach. Here I sit on the beach in La Manzanilla, Mexico, attempting to read my book, a Sue Henry mystery novel. Knut, I am taken again and again by the sounds and activities of the beach, and just had to stop reading and describe what I see and hear! Walking by is a gringo couple, with a dog bounding along with them. The man throws a ball and the dog runs and jumps and catches the ball in the air.

I am a mother of 2 grown sons,3 step children, grandmother to 3 adorable little grandsons and 2 grand daughters. I am a grand-daughter, sister, niece, aunt, friend. I wear many hats as do we all. I also have the pleasure of being a Digital Scrap Book designer at Flights of Fancy Digi-Scrap. I love Digital Scrapbooking and could spend all my time with it. Some photo shares of my MIA.
