Had pen pals many moons ago and had many rewarding conversations, recently this made me think of starting again I love reading/audiobooks, podcasts, photography, & music. Like most, I love travel (Norway, Spain, Mexico, Japan, Thailand, China, and Hong Kong (among others). I enjoy National/State Park road trips (#VanLife) & have taken my kids to every U.S. State (#JrRangers). Like many (some?) self respecting bookworms I naively believe I have the next "Great American Novel" within me somewhere that just has to be excavated from my subconscious and set free to the world.
