I am a creative, caring lady, happily married, & a mom to 4 great (grown) kids. I live in a small town in rural NY, in a large old house, overlooking vineyards & a lake. I spend my time reading, making art, knitting & sewing, baking, keeping house, bird watching, growing flowers, & taking care of my family & 3 cats. I love my pen-palling hobby & my international postcard exchange. I have a 3 great lady friends who I go to lunch with, shop, visit wineries, etc. My husband & I like to travel by car visiting small towns, caves, antique shops & toy stores, and doing a little easy hiking.
