Out of the Mouth of Nana
Valentine’s in South Carolina
February 20, 2009 in Family, Life, Marriage, MemoriesWe had an uneventful drive to South Carolina last Friday. Too bad Joe’s parents didn’t.

The Weary Traveler Returns

Our Newest Graduate
December 18, 2008 in Family, Life, MemoriesAll of my parents’ children have now graduated from college. Last night, we watched my brother walk across the stage at my alma mater to receive his nursing degree. Ok, he didn’t really walk across the stage. It was more like he jumped across...
Counting my Blessings
December 11, 2008 in Family, LifeMy news director’s father passed away yesterday. In the last year, she’s lost both him and her grandmother. It’s really made me start thinking about how lucky I am. I will be 29 in March, and most people I know who are around my...
