ReplyDeleteHi Deena, I enjoyed reading about your life. I bet you'd be pleased and amused if you asked your blog readers to tell about you. I would have to say that my impression of you (from following your story) is that you are soooo kindhearted, compassionate, funny, smart, a lover of nature and animals, and an extremely creative artist!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed getting to know you a little better.
ReplyDeleteI soooo agree w/you about the country music. My dad liked the "old stuff" too -- Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton, Buck Owens.....
My son's band isn't country, but they do play one Johnny Cash song (Folsum Prison Blues), and the crowd always loves it!
