My backyard changes rather dramatically with the seasons. For the past three or four years, we have had snow every winter. I have to say, I really love what the snow does with the various features in the yard. The heap in the front is our birdbath, with an ornamental grass plant, and a concrete …
Hubby and I have been on two cruises, on the luxury line Crystal Cruises. Both were Hillsdale College cruises, one to Alaska and one to Hawaii. The fact that both cruises left from the West Coast was a deciding factor. We took the Crystal Serenity to Alaska in 2016, and the Crystal Symphony to Hawaii …
