Introduction I'm a very down to earth person who has the best life has to offer. I'm in love with and married to a wonderful man who is my best friend. Will is very a very talented Artisan Wood Worker, artist, and a great Mandolin Player. Our Daughter, Casey, has two beautiful children and time with them is so precious to us. I was raised in the Blue Ridge Mountains of the Appalachian Mountains in a small town. The town is quaint and a wonderful place to grow up. I grew up in a family community where the kin folk continue to quilt, make applebutter from my grandmother's HUGE cooper kettle, and the women wear Prayer Coverings on their heads when going to Church. It is my mission to gather as much information and stories about my family so that I can write a book to honor this family that is so steeped in tradition and heritage. I do not want the younger generation to miss out on anything they can possibly know about the ones who have gone before them.
Interests Will, My Daughters, My Grandchildren, Writing, Reading, Rock Hound, Gardening, Creating Art, Designing Jewelry, Bluegrass
Favorite Movies The Education of Little Tree, The Song Catcher, Practical Magic, Where the Lillies Bloom...too many to mention.
Favorite Music Bluegrass, Folk, Country, Blues, Women's Music. I LOVE DEAN MARTIN and THE BAND -- eclectic I know! I am especially fond of Woodstock music and older country musicians such as Merle Haggard, Don Williams, etc. I love Dale Ann Bradley who is International Bluegrass Female Artist of the year for several years.
Favorite Books Where to start...everything by Dorthea Benton Frank, Adrianna Trigani, Sparks, Flag, and so many more. One of my Favorite Books (which is rare and can only be found in collections and I DO have a copy) is In Watermelon Sugar. It's unusual, but profound. I love Southern Novels by Southern Writers. To Kill a Mocking Bird is probably my most favorite.

You've been invited to a fancy ball but the only thing you have to wear is an orange wooly jumper. What shoes do you wear?

My work boots.
