Very First Blog

I read once that writing is easy:  All you have to do is sit staring at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead.  This seems to be true.  I am reminded of the opening scene in the movie Throw Mama From the Train where Billy Crystal’s character is in front of his typewriter with only the words, The night was…..  I believe many people have been here at his very moment with much to say but cannot simply spit the words out!

All I have ever wanted to do was travel and write.  I am pretty good at public speaking, can land jobs at interviews and mingles well at parties but actually putting words on paper, not so much.  There has to be a point where this all comes together and I am not getting any younger.   This blog will be be about our many travels, some photographs that I have had the pleasure to be behind the camera  and my life with almost a half century of living on this beautiful planet we call earth.   At the moment I am living in The Florida Keys with my husband, John and our two quaker parrots Boogie and Zeke.
