Sally Ann is proudly in her 80s. Originally from Buffalo, NY, she has 11 children (not a typo). After the last child left home, Sally Ann went back to college, got her degree and became a teacher.
She lives now in Florida because New York winters are too cold. Sally Ann is an avid kayaker.

My laptop is back. The operating system was re-installed and it has a new battery. Whew!
Glad your laptop is restored. Yes, phew, as you say! What a pity the museum was affected. I do hope they can restore what was damaged. Meanwhile, these ladies' smiling faces provide a warm welcome.
ReplyDeleteI hope the art works in the museum are okay, Jack! 11 kids!!
