Country Roots
That’s me.
I’m also a writer, speaker, and looker-upper of things I don’t know. I get lost in great stories, and I smile at the future (Proverbs 31:25).
On this blog, you’ll find a little bit of this and a little bit of that, but mostly the focus is on family, friends, faith, and fun.
You may also see a blog post or two about my boys: Rugby, the princely papillon with the courage to tree a raccoon, and Griff, a most happy-go-lucky collie.
Making memories with those I love–that’s one of my favoritest things in the world!
Whether it’s holiday celebrations, family traditions, or the “little things,” a trove of treasured memories is created one day, one event, one shared moment at a time.
Settlers of Catan is one of our favorite games.
Maybe it’s playing a favorite game. Or heading to the Pizza Hut buffet as soon as the garage is cleaned out. Even a china gravy boat can become a special memory.
The importance of a family legacy is woven into all the stories I write.
Stories I hope and pray you will love reading as much as I loved writing them.

This Willie Nelson classic phrase is the text I send my kids whenever I hop in my car for a road trip.
It’s a tradition, and so is playing the Florida State University fight song whenever we drive past Gainesville.
My little Pontiac Vibe has over 170,000 miles on it after traveling through 22 states and the District of Columbia.
With an audiobook rented from Cracker Barrel in my CD player, my GPS stuck to the windshield, and a full tank of gas, I’m ready to roll down the highway.
I share the photos and memories of my dream-come-true Canada trip in a series called Exploring Prince Edward Island.
In 2017, my sister and I flew to Barcelona for a whirl around Europe. We traveled by Eurail, making up our itinerary one day at a time for the first week. Then we headed to Lisbon for a few days in an apartment only a few blocks from the Mediterranean.
This past fall, we boarded a cruise ship in New York City and traveled up the Atlantic coast into Canada.

Next up? We’re thinking about going west. Another train trip may be involved!
