Hey kristi --
ReplyDeleteJust visited your site. Forgot to tell you one of my biggest interests is POLITICS!
Your site is beautiful! Reminds me of my youth in Florida. But what's the nearest body of water to Apache Junction, Arizona?
Yeah, the word verification. I wish I could use some of these in Scrabble:
mingl
(well, that is just wrong)
gropu
(what happens if I lift you up and then ____ you)
flucht
(That's a verb, isn't it?)
Warm regards,
EK
