If you're going through hell, keep going. ~ Winston Churchill I was hoping today's blog post would be about out time this weekend on Lummi Island.

Meandering on Ulysess

It takes no more time to see the good side of life than to see the bad. ~ Jimmy Buffett Last weekend, the British Hubby and I were invited to a bbq.
