Fun Stuff

If you were an animal what would you be? Probably a ‘mutt’, they are quick to learn, open to hugs, don’t have to do anything but entertain and be taken care of. What's the greatest invention in the last 50 years? The internet and e-mail. Access to the world is at your fingertips and keeps you in touch with friends and family far away. What is your favorite place on earth? Morro Bay Strand – tent camping in general and the California coastline. What makes you laugh? When my husband giggles; it’s contagious. If you could have any super-power what would it be? Something that would enable me to multi-task more efficiently.
