The Village of Ribchester. . .

Whew! It’s been a busy couple of weeks. In addition to getting ready to leave a week from Monday for England, there’s the usual “stuff” of daily living. . . Groomer appointments, shopping, dry cleaners, dropping off and picking up jewelry for cleaning and repairs and still attempting to work on book 2. In addition…

Hello, June . . .
