I'm back! We're updated! 😚
THANK YOU to nanner and jez. You are true gems. 💎💎
I want to share something with the group! While I was away, I visited St Thomas Island. My dad did a lot of work on the island in the 80s, and has a room there. My family (hub and I and 2 kids) have traveled there every year for some time now the last week in March. Earlier this year, I read Marriage of Opposites by Alice Hoffman, and little did I know it takes place on St Thomas Island. Come to find out, it's a historical fiction about the impressionist artist Camille Pissaro. All these years I've walked the downtown being able to name all the narrow passages, and finding this shop and that restaurant, but I didn't about about this historic birthplace. I have walked past his family's store and above; his childhood home. This year, I went to visit. There is a sign outside the door naming it a historic location. It was really cool!! I felt like I was looking inside the "set" of the book. I recommend the read, it's a great story of his interesting, difficult life.
