        "I been one poor correspondent, and I been too, too hard to find, but it doesn't mean you ain't been on my mind." ~ America, "Sister Golden Hair" Despite good intentions, I don't blog as much as I'd like anymore, or have time to visit those of my favorite bloggers. But I'm hanging on to…

  • Promises Kept… a sweet catch-up

    A few days ago, I traded my phone for an umbrella when I took Belle for our morning run/walk down our dirt road.
