Re: Chat chat
Got back last night from four days in Maryland visiting family and
celebrating DH's birthday with crab, crab, and more crab. I think we
ate it almost every day! Spent a day at Hershey Park with the
grandkids... exhausting. Now off today for the State Master Gardener
Conference. No wonder my garden is full of weeds.
I've done that cruise, Auralie, way back when we were stationed at
West Point, in the mid '70s. Lovely location.
