Long time no update... Several craft pictures have been added to the gallery. I am also a real live merchant with a consignment booth at Main Street Station in Grapevine, TX. I'm movin' on up, to the east side ... Check out my "business" website at http://www.tortugaln.com
1400 km (800 miles) of driving and just as much walking found us at the end of our two weeks in Ireland. And what a lovely time it was. Campers are caravans, elevators are lifts, and four-thirty is half four, but things were more the same than they were different. When a gallery becomes available, I'll be sure to let you know. Until then, enjoy a few slides and the tale of "The Bus Ride".

For Valentine's Day, Steve signed us up for a glass paperweight class at VETRO, a local art studio. Wow! "Isn't that dangerous?" "Well, yes, but only if you're careless." "Are you sure I can do this?" "Yes. The instructor will help." "Awesome! When do we go?" |

After a couple of years of talking, Steve finally got a Jeep. I am so glad he did this for himself. He deserves it. |

Who knew a refrigerator could bring so much joy! When the compressor on our first refrigerator failed, we had to make the decision to repair or replace. A service call from the local Refrigerator Rob said it would cost more to repair it than it was worth. Figures. Visits to Sears, Home Depot and Best Buy land us a new LG icebox. No, we did not get the one with the television in the door. But we did get a beauty. Get this ... it actually freezes the ice cream. And it's got ice and water in the door! And, and it keeps veggies fresh for more than two days. And, and, AND it came with a humor magazine (sometimes known as the owners manual).
Someday, one day, my friend Jack will make me a wind chime out of old Dr Pepper bottles. I have to stay his friend until I get them. Maybe he will never make them, and that would be okay, too.
