Long Weekend Visit to England
We have wanted to see the ABBA Voyage concert since we first heard about it. Using technology the band is a digital version of their younger selves playing and singing the songs from times gone. Although at first it was a bit surreal, by the end it was almost as if it were a “real”…

Social Season Has Begun
This weekend was very full and very very fun. That’s all I can say about that. The pics only tell a small part, but you can imagine the rest. 😀 ~T 🔥🐉♋️

Year of the Dragon 2024
There are certain cultural elements that I have acquainted myself with as it relates to my Asian heritage.
