Chicago by Water
A day trip to Chicago took us down the Chicago River on an architectural tour to see the skyline, the buildings, bridges, etc. Seeing a city or place from the water is very different than walking on the ground. You learn so much from a different view. We have done this architecture river tour dozensContinue reading “Chicago by Water”
Long Live the Queen
Queen Elizabeth’s funeral is tomorrow and I can’t help but write a short blog/tribute to her as a queen, leader, mother, grandmother, head of state, and the list could go on and on.

Succulents have become my favorite plants due to the fact that I can keep them alive and they are easy to care for. Terrariums are aContinue reading “Terrarium 101”
