Always the girl on the go!
Mary, I just caught up on your blogs. As always, I love how you just pick up and go... any where... any place! Also, your home looks great. You always did wonderful things with color. Please send me your number and I promise to call next time I'm in your neck of the woods. Maybe we could meet up in Old Salem one Saturday.
