Returned to Saybrook train station this evening to a happy dh and torrential rain! I had such fun with Nick and Kate. We hung out Friday, looking at wedding photos and eating Indian food from India Quality right across the street from their apartment. Talk about convenience!

I looked back in Recent Posts and just can't find the one that has SB going off to the anniversary party. I just have to know how it went? And..........what did you end up getting them as a gift?
I had a bit of a flashback to my days when I lived in Nashville today. When I lived there, I was at the height of my competitive ballroom career, I also found myself teaching country western…including line dances. I had a group of Moms and Sons today that were interested in learning country dancing.
