The tourism board wanted me to write about how wheelchair accessible the region is. I hadn’t been there before, and it sounded like an interesting area, so I made plans to go.

Farewell 2012, Welcome 2013

It was an exciting year as I was able to visit new places around the country and around the world.

Happy New Year!
Marcia
