My World

How about these for colorful veggies!!!  My daughter-in-law finds terrific stuff and they taste as good as they look!

And one of my favorite feathered friends!!  It's been a frustrating day at the computer, consequently a rather weird post of  "my world"???? Hope you enjoy it anyway!!

What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
