I am an individual, a mom, a grandma, a daughter, a sister, a life partner, a friend, a teacher, and more.
I want to share my adventures in crafting, travel, motorcycles, and family. Occasionally I may also share thoughts, ideas, recipes, and insights that I discover along the way.
I hope you will join me on this journey and your trip will be a fun one!
