.  I have never been much of a sit-at-home person.  I have enjoyed working with my perennials and bulbs during the spring and summer, watching the birds at my feeders and birdhouses, taking pictures, sharing books, talking on the phone, playing games and emailing.  I have always loved Christmas and birthdays!  I love the music, the tree, my Christmas village, the presents, the children, the season. Scott and I have enjoyed motels, camping with my little Scamp trailer, and occasional travel; the Oregon State Parks, the Brookings/Gold Beach area, Grants Pass, and short trips to Santa Rosa to visit Scott’s sister.  We once took a road trip that covered ten states.  At age 59, I took a five week road trip by myself that encompassed seven states, visiting relatives, staying in motels, sending postcards, and gathering souvenirs.  During that trip, both Scott and my brother checked in on me daily regarding my progress and adventures.
