This July was a busy one, but the summer is flying by. I explored country stores, ate peaches and met a Teddy Roosevelt impersonator. I drank a peach apple slushie that was to die for. I explored a new city park, and then, a neat city pier. I walked through the Greenwich Village, which isContinue reading “July 2023 Favorites”
