Lone Grove New Year
by angeliska on January 2, 2009
It’s become a New Year’s tradition for me and mine to go out to Lone Grove, a ghost-town near Llano and my ancestral home. My aunt and uncle live there now, and before them my grandparents and great-grandparents lived there. (…)
Happy Hexmas!
by angeliska on December 26, 2008
If you haven’t guessed by now, I really get into holidays- in my own peculiar way. I just enjoy the idea that a day, or series of days is extraordinary and to be a reason to celebrate and enjoy any (…)

On Tuesday, my sweetheart and my grandfather and I are going to San Francisco for a week! It’s strange to think that it has been nearly a year since I visited San Francisco! So much has happened in that time, (…)
