Snippet Sunday – Shall We Start Now?
It’s time for Snippet Sunday and the weather outside is winter. That’s it, no cute phrase or fun remark. It’s winter – snowy and cold. And because it’s Wyoming, LOTS OF WIND.

It’s time for Snippet Sunday and the summer has arrived. It’s been really warm here in Cheyenne that it feels more like July even though it’s June. We’re hiding inside and spend a lot of time in the basement where it stays cool. This year I’m hoping to finish my serial and that means I…
