I live in beautiful, sunny Tampa Bay FL, where I have lived for most of my life. A true Florida Cracker. I love to travel, dance, swim, paint, craft, read, and spend time with my huge family. My passions are my philanthropic charity work, growing bromeliad and air plants and cooking. The only pet peeve I can think of is people that do not cover their sneezes and coughs.
