  • Iowa- 3/18- I was here during a blizzard so I didn't see much but I did get to visit two breweries.
  • Ireland- 2000- I rented a castle and invited my family to join me for a week.  Sixteen of us went for the week.
  • Italy- 1973, 1990, 2002- a beautiful country filled with outrageous people, delicious food and stunning scenery.
  • Iceland- I went here in the winter when it was completely dark so I missed so much of this country.  But I did see Northern lights and the Blue Lagoon.

  • Indira Ghandi- she certainly had a turbulent time in office.

  • Into the Wild- a disturbing movie about a troubled young man who wanders off by himself.  I've seen this movie at least three times.
