I stepped out of my hotel and into a time machine.
Transported back, not in the typical resurrected town like Williamsburg, Va. or quaint seaport village like Mystic, Ct., but truly back where I remembered with emotions raw enough to bring tears to my eyes. I cried tears of grief, and tears of joy. The images I saw were contemporary and vivid. I lived them, and here I relived them. I was standing in the Newseum, Washington DC's newest museum of the news media, hence it portmanteau of a name.

As I enjoy the autumn of my years, I have embraced a new found need for a search for passion. Not necessarily a steamy love affair, though that would not be out of the question; but rather a purpose to my life. My travels as a single senior female afford me the opportunity to enjoy that journey.
My most recent destination on this path to fulfillment was the sacred grounds of Sedona, Arizona. A most amazing place to be sure. My friend Patty and I left from southern California and enjoyed a scenic

On a rare, warm, spring-like winter night in a farmhouse in La Marche, Italy, it was also a bright sunny Sunday morning in California. I was cutting up a chicken and potatoes in my PJ’s, while chef Jason Bartner, in La Marche, instructed me. Jason told me to make sure my chicken was dry, and to use a towel—it won’t get stuck and it will wash. All I had to do was roll out of bed, turn on my IPad, click a link, and there he was—live, available for any questions I had. We braised the chicken a
