We’ve been gone a while. I think we owe you an explanation. In November 2018 I released a blog talking about finding our personal wonderlands. In 2019 I was challenged to listen to my own words.

Welcome to the Cedars…
In search of curiosities, we had to check out this art in The Cedars!
Yes Virginia, There is a Wonderland…
Some wonder if Alice’s adventures were real or if it was a dream. Perhaps it is only in dreaming that we find a reality that is worth living. Sure, we all have responsibilities.
