~The great search~

Today is the third day in the Great Search Adventure…the one in which we discover or eliminate (or both) our Perfect Town.

Fresh Discoveries~

DISCOVERY! I think I have awakened in another world! Far from the reality of big box supermarkets with their wobbly, squeaky, and direction-challenged carts. What IS wrong with those things? And let’s not even go to how filthy they can be (the carts, not the stores~ or rather, I wasn’t thinking about the stores….oh heck, now… Continue reading Fresh Discoveries~
