Top 10 List

I love the smell of the Ocean in the air.. the feeling of the wind in my hair.. and the sun on my back.. I enjoy photographing the world and everything in it.. People, places, landscapes, animals, flowers, feelings, emotions, colors, architecture, art etc.  I am very creative and enjoy scrapbooking, reading, writing (Nicholas Sparks is my favorite Author and I would love to create some beautiful work about my life and my father's, to rival that of Nich's :)

By nature, I am a very maternal and loving creature.. I love babies and children, animals and people in general.  "Try making more friends then enemies" is a quote from my dear father, which I have always tried to uphold in my life.  The gift of conversation has been a blessing for me and come by it quite easily with just about anyone I meet, which comes in handy when you like to travel as much as I do.  Having been fortunate to travel to 5 countries in Europe: Amsterdam, Netherlands, Paris, France, Belgium, Germany, and several cities in Sweden, all over the U.S.: Washington, D.C., NYC, Orlando/Miami/Fort Walden Beach, Florida, New Mexico, Salt Lake City, Utah, Virginia, Seattle, WA, Dallas, TX, Las Vegas, NV, Oregon, etc.  Meeting new people, experiencing new cultures, foods, dialects, landscapes and photographing it all is heaven to me..

 Always open to adventure and fun in the sun: I love sailing, cycling, swimming, surfing, boogie boarding, body surfing, I want to learn to water ski, jet ski, roller blade and knee board..

My husband and I love going to museums, galleries, traveling, wineries, nice restaurants, the theatre, ballet, opera, dancing (I love SALSA :).  My dear hubby and I love all types of film from old, foreign, independent film, modern, not to mention a great love of music from Bach to Ella Fitzgerald, Mariah Carey to Sarah McLaughlin, The Eagles to Led Zepplin, Jack Johnson to Rascal Flatts.. All forms of Art take me to another place and bring all types of emotion and feeling inside my mind and heart..

Some things I don't like: Mental, Sexual, Physical abusers of any shape or fashion, War, Unjust people, Liars, Hurtful people, people stuck in a "poor, poor, pitiful me party", People who mistreat others, children or animals, Lazy folk who just don't care about anything and watch the world go by and then complain about it!
