I received my nickname shortly after the movie "Romancing the Stone" came out. For whatever reason, I think at the time it was because I carried those little mini bottles in my handbag, but since then many people see a similarity in my looks and lifestyle to Joan. I began traveling at an early age and I was in Afghanistan before the Russians and in Budapest the day communism fell. I still get into some funny situations but they always turn out great. My deceased friend, St Elmo, 17 1/2 when he left me, was a cultured and well traveled spitz-poo, or spoodle, whichever you prefer. He had been in ten countries and 39 states. I am an American and I have lived in Europe and Korea. I've been all over Europe, Turkey, Iran, Philippines, and Japan but I have not been to Scotland, Ireland or Greece. I have a to do list and these head it, along with China, Austrailia, New Zealand and South America. My last adventure was in Mazatlan, Mexico in April, 2006. I have no idea where I am going next but wherever I go there will be a story to tell. Linda Darlene
