Glad to be back
I’ve never seen Lake D’Arbonne look bad, but it looked really, really good late this weekend when my wife and I returned home after a 24-day road trip touring up through the mountains, though many of the historic places where this great nation was first planned, fought for and founded, then back down the East … Continue reading
