Interesting TV Platform Jerry and I discovered a TV application called Wondrium  (https://www.wondrium.com/) We watched a series named History Discovery, Travel to Rome and Beyond.  The host of the series is Dr Darius Arya.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! :: HERE’S TO A GREAT 2023 I hope everyone survived the winter weather last week.  There were some challenging times for some of us. We were out and about and didn’t have any problems. I was a bit disappointed our snow left before Christmas, but I think it was best the snow […]

  wHope everyone had a great Thanksgiving, we did. Ours was very quiet and laid back.  Now it is time to get ready for the big one.  The month will be busy with all kinds of events and celebrations. There are even predictions for some snow, maybe we will have a “White Christmas” unusual for […]

Summer has made it to the NW with vengeance. I hope everyone is enjoying the warm weather and not complaining because it is “too HOT.”  I know it is a challenge staying cool, everyone has their own idea of how to keep their places cool. I guess if it gets too bad, we can always […]
