Vacation time

Well part time for me and full for my husband.  It was a week of mostly day trips and our first overnight in a long time. We went to Wilderstein, last owned by Margaret "Daisy" Suckley, which we happened upon one day early in the spring.  Pictures are in his camera and I'll get a hold… Continue reading Vacation time
