Patricia Sands lives in Toronto, Canada when she isn't somewhere else, particularly the south of France. With a happily blended family of seven adult children and, at last count, six grandchildren, life is full and time is short. Beginning with her first Kodak Brownie camera at the age of six, she has told stories all of her life through photography. Much to her surprise a few years ago, she began to write and has now published three novels, including two that are part of a six-book series set in the south of France. Love France? Love her work! Check out her website www.patriciasandsauthor.com She is particularly drawn to the rewarding friendships of women and the challenges many embrace once their families are grown. "It's never too late to begin something new," she enthuses. "As the saying goes, just do it!"

Oh, boy! That sunset looks like the ones we had visiting my parents in Colorado. I miss places with big sky like that. A gorgeous sunset EVERY SINGLE DAY. Whew! Good inspiration.
Well, let’s thank our friend Susie for hosting another great bash! Her parties are so much fun because we always get to make such fabulous connections. It’s lovely to meet you and I am popping over to your blog right now!
