Personal Information:
I am the mother of three adult children and delight in my three
grandchildren, Stephen, eight years old, Elizabeth, six and Anthony who
turns one on August 14th.
This summer I traveled to Italy to hike and swim on the Amalfi Coast. The
scenery was spectacular with mountains dropping precipitously into the
Mediterranean and narrow roads snaking through mountain passes. Towns like
Positano and Capri are terraced into mountainsides.
We climbed Mt. Vesuvius on a very hot morning to take a peek at the inner
core of the volcano. In the afternoon, we viewed Pompei which is being
uncovered from the volcanic ash which totally destroyed the city and all of
its residents. The engineering feats of ancient Rome are
awesome
Then I went to Ocean City, New Jersey with my children and grandchildren for
a week of body surfing and bonding. We had perfect weather.
With all this play behind me, I'm energized and eager to begin another
school year!
