About Me

My photo
I was born in England, family moved to Canada when I was young, I joined the Navy and later moved to Bermuda where I met my husband who was in the US Navy. We moved to Italy where we married, stayed there for 6 years then onto Hawaii for 13 years and now have retired in NC at a beautiful lake which we love.

Welcome to my Blog
