August Days

Nancy Andrews | August 17, 2010

      We think often of the gardens growing back home.  Every time we go to the fruteria to buy our fruits and vegetables, I think of how blessed we always were to have all of those things at home to use every day without paying a lot of money!  Of course they weren’t free though, [...]

Opposites

Nancy Andrews | June 2, 2010

         We are both so healthy all the time that we have been quite spoiled in that regard.  It seems that we have to experience a little bad sometimes to really appreciate the good in our lives!  This has been one of those weeks.  But only temporary problems.  Ron has been down for [...]

Highs and lows

Nancy Andrews | May 24, 2010

   This has been a busy week of hurry up and wait!  It seems that most of our appointments for piano lessons, or discussions, canceled at the last moment or didn’t call at all to cancel, and we just spent a lot of time waiting!!  But somehow it usually turned out that while we were [...]

The Senderismo

Nancy Andrews | May 24, 2010
