Hey there, Flori! You sound solid which is good! Number #10 already? I missed one somehow! Never was especially gifted at math. Good luck with it. I hope it is a minor blip on your radar.

We are enjoying a "pseudo-spring" here! I am out in only a flannel shirt, no gloves, not hat! Heading out soon to walk the dog and do not plan on wearing a jacket even as the afternoon wains. Loving this!

My youngest is planning on moving to your big, and oh so far away (can you hear Mom's despair???), state this summer. His girlfriend's family is in San Matteo and he likely will follow her there. That means I will make the 3k mile trip to the west coast to see him. If I am flying all the way to CA, I am going to stay and explore it a bit. Wine, redwoods, coastline and a stop to meet up with Flori! I'll do the wine country firstly and bring along lots of my finds! Yours is such a massive state, it is daunting to plan a trip there! Micah is enraptured with the weather and beauty.
