Happy New Year everyone. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday break. We sure did.. and I can't wait to share the adventure with you. But first books! One for the Money by Stephanie Plus Synopsis - Meet Stephanie Plum, a bounty hunter with attitude. In Stephanie’s opinion, toxic waste, rabid drivers, armed schizophrenics, and August heat, humidity, and hydrocarbons are all part of the great adventure of living in Jersey. She’s a product of the “burg,” a blue-collar pocket of Trenton where houses are attached and narrow, cars are American, windows are clean, and (God forbid you should be late) dinner is served at six. Out of work and out of money, Stephanie blackmails her bail-bondsman cousin Vinnie into giving her a try as an apprehension agent. Stephanie knows zilch about the job requirements, but she figures her new pal, el-primo bounty hunter Ranger, can teach her what it takes to catch a crook. Her first nail Joe Morelli, a former vice cop on the run from a charge of murder on

  Wishing everyone a Happy Holiday filled with love and laughter. Our hopefully will be filled with travel and adventure as we headed out on our last trip of the year. You can follow along with us on Instagram The last few weeks have been busy. We managed to score seats for two Rangers games and thankfully they won both times. While we don't do the tree and gifts we do shop. Every year we take the kids on a book shopping spree and here is what they bought. M and I also celebrated 16 years of marriage. We were both sick and didn't really make too big a deal out of it. We did manage to have breakfast with some friends and dinner with some family.  Every year we add a picture on the wall above our bed to celebrate another year. Also want to wish you all a very happy New Year. We did it!  also peace, more open mindedness and understanding, more kindness, love and compassion for our fellow humans.          Etsy             Instagram             Twitter             Redbubble         

The last couple of years we have been spending our Thanksgiving's on a warm tropical island. We don't have much family here and most of our friends are busy so seems pointless, the four of us just sitting at home.  The first time we ventured out was in 2021. We were still dealing with Covid and we had found the strictest most Covid safe island and had the most magical time in Antigua . In 2022 we went to Jamaica . This year we revisited Cancun. The last time we were in Cancun  was in 2016 and H was still in diapers! We had an early morning flight, I had imagined us by the pool by lunch. But things didn't go exactly as planned. We had to disembark the plane due to low tire pressure and reboard over an hour later. The rest of the journey was uneventful. But once we got to the Cancun airport it was madness. And I hate to say it but we got scammed!  We have been avidly traveling for almost 15 years now and have been to countless countries and it was Cancun that got us.. lol. Ye

Perfect Remains by Helen Fields Synopsis   - On a remote Highland mountain, the body of Elaine Buxton is burning. All that will be left to identify the respected lawyer are her teeth and a fragment of clothing. In the concealed back room of a house in Edinburgh, the real Elaine Buxton screams into the darkness… Detective Inspector Luc Callanach has barely set foot in his new office when Elaine’s missing persons case is escalated to a murder investigation. Having left behind a promising career at Interpol, he’s eager to prove himself to his new team. But Edinburgh, he discovers, is a long way from Lyon, and Elaine’s killer has covered his tracks with meticulous care. It’s not long before another successful woman is abducted from her doorstep, and Callanach finds himself in a race against the clock. Or so he believes … The real fate of the women will prove more twisted than he could have ever imagined. Thoughts - I love a good thriller. This was my first one by Ms. Fields and it was a g

When we left Monterey, we first made a stop at M's uncle's house. We hadn't met them in several years and spent the day with them. It was a great time catching up and boy does his aunt know how to cook. Yum! The next morning we were off to San Francisco. We were issued many warnings about the current state of San Francisco. The homelessness is on an all time high as is the opioid epidemic. We were told to be very careful. Car theft and break ins were also a concern so don't leave anything in your car, we were told numerous times. We had seen a lot of homelessness in San Diego as well.. and while it is awful being close to New York it was not something we had not seen before. But we made sure to take precautions.  We stayed at the Hyatt in the Union Square area. Which was the perfect location because it was within walking or trolley distance of everything we wanted to do on our first day. No car needed.  First stop Chinatown. San Francisco's Chinatown is the oldest i
