After a morning student teacher observation visit, hubby and I played hooky! Drive a bit south to see a few great exhibits at the Springfield (MA) Museums! A little rain didn’t spoil the day of art, lunch at the cafe and yogurt on the way home! How does one play hooky in retirement?

As our delightful American tour guide called it — we had a “lie-in” — we got to sleep in and relax over that delightful breakfast spread this morning. We sat with a wonderful couple from LA – Jerry and Sandra — over breakfast. We really enjoyed getting to know them. I know that if we […]
