She was still Secretary of State, very strong, vibrant, and happy. (I was excited and happy too….waaaaaay less stressed in this role than I am in my current day job.) Hillary and Barack had stopped by our home for a dinner party. We were joined by […]
So here we are, 2013 – the whirl and whiz of year end holidays are but a blur and the reality of a new year is setting in.
The New Year’s Eve Gala in Telluride was a smashing success, and a whole lot of fun! (Snow, cold, mountains, a great feast, meeting lots of great […]
