Wife, mother, grandmother, photographer, singer, traveller, animal lover, book lover, history buff, chief bottle washer and jill of all trades. (Mistress of none) Born in Salford, grew up in Monton, Lancashire, emigrated with my parents to Winnipeg, Manitoba, married a Chicago guy and lived there, then we moved to North Dakota to be near family and escape city life...

***NO PHOTOSHOP and NO Lightroom.*** I have a very basic editing program and mostly crop, I don't do funky colour changes, mostly because I don't know how.

We spend a lot of time in Canada with our daughter, son-in-law and grandkids, which has entailed watching various sports over the years, usually soccer or football. We currently have two rescue dogs and two rescue cats and are retired! Best job you'll never have.

I have zero training as a photographer, but enjoy it very much nevertheless. I may not respond quickly, but I promise I will try.

Lots of love and thanks to those who, follow, fave and comment, especially my number one cheerleader John P. Henry!
