About me

Gender Female
Location Marshfield, MA, United States
Introduction As a former Landscape designer I enjoy maintaining the gardens at my three homes in Maine, Massachusetts and Florida. That gives me plenty of diverse materials and conditions to play with. My Husband Tom and I are "snowbirds" spending the worst of the winter months in Nokomis Florida, where my labradoodle enjoys swimming in our pool and in the warm Gulf water. My daughter Kate and her Husband Nik are expecting our first grandchild, Karina in April, so our travel plans will include lots of trips to Seattle this year. Thankfully my son Brendan and friend Wendy live close by with my Grand-dog Duncan. I am currently a member of a Writer's group at Tufts and trying to write my first Mystery Novel.I also love cooking, rug-hooking,quilting, and making jewelry. Every day I have to get out and walk with my dog Isobel. There is something restorative about sharing the exercise with a fur wrapped bundle of joy
