Mart, I must say that children are born curious. A drive to learn is simply curiosity gently directed by a teacher/parent/adult. Coming into a...
Aquanette, good for you! Travel, even to the east coast, broadens the mind, and sometimes broadens the "beam". When I found out about Cajun food,...

Glad to see you again, Stratsmom. You were missed! We have rain, again, today. Yesterday was rainy, the day before ditto, and now we are having...
