I'm looking forward to sharing experiences with everyone here. I am a widow and my 3 grandchildren are the lights of my life.
Oh, and did I mention that I have a newly retired DH !!

Thank you to everyone for making me feel so welcome! So many greetings came from states I've lived in because both my father when I was growing up, and my late husband during the course of his 20-yr Air Force career were transferred around the country frequently. I've lived in 9 states, several of them, 2 or 3 times. I had babies in Michigan and Louisiana. Gwin in WA state
