about

I’m a fifty something woman who raised two boys and is enjoying the second half of my life. I was a stay-at-home mom for years and I’m now discovering a different side to life. I enjoyed being there for my kids even though the days were hectic I will always cherish them. I’m currently exploring my creative side after working in human services and education for a bit. I hope to make writing a full-time side business in some way. Writing has always been a passion of mine and I would love to make a living doing it. Blogging has allowed me to follow a passion of mine and share my experiences with others. I hope to share with others what I know about child development and parenting.

Gettysburg

Take a journey back in time

See a small town so sublime

Brick paved sidewalks that line the streets

Quaint restaurants with lots to eat

Ice cream parlor and candy shop

Lots of unique places to stop

Antiques galore to find and buy

Many souvenirs to catch your eye

Take a carriage ride through town

This is the place to come and slow down

Bed and breakfasts to spend the night

Go and visit the Peace Light

Tour the town with battle history

See the ghost hunting mystery

Go see the landmark Seminary Ridge

Take a walk on the covered Sach’s bridge

Visit National Gettysburg Park

Watch out for those ghosts at dark

have a glass of local wine

This is the place to go and unwind
