Written by Ms. Mae on October 20th, 2020October 20th, 2020. 1 Comment

In this year of limited travel, I was able to travel to Michigan for a long weekend.  As soon as I returned, the Covid cases in my county started increasing to higher numbers than we had seen in the spring, so I will be staying home again for now. My daughter traveled with me as […]

Vacation Memories – 1995

Written by Ms. Mae on September 22nd, 2020September 22nd, 2020. Leave a comment

Although I took a break from writing earlier this year, I did not want to completely stop writing and was eager to begin again. Unfortunately, I am still not traveling much at all. My family rented a cabin in the Smoky Mountains over the Fourth of July weekend and my daughter and I hope to […]

I Only Speak English…

Written by Ms. Mae on September 15th, 2020September 15th, 2020. Leave a comment

“I only speak English…” is a common reason (excuse) for Americans to avoid travel abroad.  Although it can be daunting to listen to someone give you directions in a language that you do not understand, this does not have to be the only option.

Although this year has been different and I’ve been knitting nearly full time since March, I still think of fall as a time to begin new projects. KALs KAL stands for knit-a-long in knitter’s […]

A Virtual Trip to Europe

Written by Ms. Mae on September 1st, 2020September 1st, 2020. Leave a comment

I am currently on a virtual trip to Europe. I didn’t plan this, and in a way, I wasn’t expecting it, although if I would have thought about it, I should have. The Tour de France started on Saturday. I’ve written about the tour before – I was able to attend parts of three stages […]
