A Little Hiccup

Monday Ritchey and I were in New Providence Cemetery taking photos, a fitting way to celebrate 15 years. I had just reached Samuel McAfee, a Revolutionary War soldier. He had a gravestone and also a war marker. I backed up to get both in the photo, fell and broke my left wrist. I am typing with one hand. Thank you for all the kind comments on the last post. May be a bit before I can write another.

  3. Girl now I KNOW you and I are related hahaha…. My dad used to say I had three feet and that getting the third shoe wasn’t easy 🤣 … especially since by fifth grade I was wearing a size 9 shoe. I graduated to a size ten on my first day of 7th grade.
