Retired journalist, lover of cats, books, opera and wine. I sit on the board of my local library as well as the Al Purdy A-frame Association. Look it up or ask me about it. Former U.S. resident and proud Canadian.
I haven’t been very active. Still feeling my way around. I will put more effort into getting off the ground. Meanwhile, Canada rocks!

Zero scandals.
Zero investigations.
Zero impeachment hearings.
Zero indictments.
Zero charges.
Zero drama.

Just class and grace personified.

Let's let them know how much we miss this wonderful family. 💙
