Hello from Colorado! I am a mom to an 11-year old daughter. We have a dog, a cat, and some fish. I have a quiet personality. I read a lot and also like being outdoors. I enjoy gardening, hiking, and swimming. I love to travel. I love animals and have been vegetarian nearly my entire life. I wrote to pen pals when I was younger. I hope to form long-lasting friendships through letter writing once again. Additionally, I am a recent cancer survivor. I took a break from this site when I was first diagnosed and going through treatment.
