About me

Hi.  Welcome to my blog.

I am new at this — publishing blogs — but not new to writing the stories of my life as

— an American who has lived in Bolivia, Ethiopia, and Ireland, now living in the mountains of North Carolina

— the wife of an outdoor adventure man

—  mother to four stellar daughters and three remarkable sons (by law), and

— grandma to six lively, clever grandgirls and one sweet grandbabyboy who live on three different continents.

I am a grateful follower of Jesus Christ, who wants to grow down deeper into His grace.

Thanks for reading my stories.
