 Looking over our back yard during a recent early morning. The ferns are in place but need watered daily. We could use some rain. The calendar doesn't quite agree just yet, but the heat says that yes, it's summer here in Indiana. I finished a busy speaking season with twelve gigs around the state. Next up is joining my decades-long friend and writing colleague, Darrel Radford, on the lawn of the Henry County Historical Society in New Castle, Indiana, from 11 to 3 Saturday, June 10. It's the annual ice cream social. Darrel and I would love for you to drop by our booth and chat. Always love seeing friends from my career years at The Courier-Times. I've been lazy about posting on here and missed the whole month of April. Here's a short catch up. I accepted an invite from Typewriter Creative Co. to share insights into my self-publishing journey. Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-TKGmQcZ46tZHNYD7fjDsw  The spring season has taken me throughout the state for opportunities to present my signature program for this year called "Fun with Heirlooms." I have collected a number of ideas for caring for your heirlooms and even getting your kids and grands interested. It's always fun with others bring their treasures and share about them. Need a program for a women's program? Club? Banquet? Send me an email at [email protected].  Sharing in Sheridan ...  Beautiful heirlooms in Hartford City. It's also fun to connect with other creatives. Author friend Cathy Shouse and I had dinner with the talented professional organizer Mendi Funk Consulting LLC. Check out her website at mendifunkconsulting.com. If you are interested in the cowboy romance genre, check out Cathy's titles on Amazon. Talk about inspiration, shout out to my husband, Brian, for taking the outside while I took the inside and we washed windows!  For now, I'm thinking about getting together with some friends and family and enjoying some summer fun and laughter--as well as completing a few projects on the old list. Happy summer to you and yours, whatever the calendar says.
