“It's beauty that captures your attention; personality which captures your heart.”

By now a lot of children are on summer break, snowbirds have gone back home to enjoy a much cooler summer, and many families are traveling to beat the heat. Just because its hot and many people are escaping the valleys extraordinarily sizzling hot summers...this is not such a HORRIBLE endeavor if you are in Phoenix for the majority of the summer. *~*

Life in a nutshell in the electronic age...Follow, tweet, Blog, thank users for following, check Facebook, MySpace, email, other email account, then trying to get off the computer to play tennis, edit my novel, and write just for FUN. Oh life... what is next in the electronic era?
