Recently, I have been hearing such amazing things about a certain place we are likely going to be moving to next. Raves about it being absolute paradise which got me thinking...what is paradise? It's rather subjective isn't it? Paradise to me is often not paradise to someone else. Just as "must see" things to one … Continue reading This Is Paradise?

Leaving On A (Private) Jet Plane
A group of us were heading out on a trip, destination unknown but somehow known at the same time. My friend Kelly announced her friend was offering up his private jet and pilot for us!

He could no longer … Continue reading Opera and Steel
