August 2023 Newsletter Reprint – Soaring to New Heights!
Read Previous Newsletter Reprints Helloooooooooo, and Welcome to my Safari! It’s always bliss to have you along as we explore my Untamed, Unexpected, Unforgettable world! Today I received a note from one of the most tenacious women I have ever met. Her name is Patsy Blake. She’s been my dentist; my real estate client; and she’ll always be my friend. An American, she moved to New Zealand to be closer to her rugby-mad boys and their families. Faced with a recent and profound loss, Patsy tried working for a corporate group dentistry but was bored to tears. She’s deliberately ripped herself from an easy job and chosen to work…

September 2022 Newsletter Reprint – A Quiet Reflection
Read Previous Newsletter Reprints Helloooooooooo and welcome back to my camo jeep. So good to have you spend a minute or two with me and our imaginations. The camo jeep could double as a magic carpet. We won’t see rooftops, but we’ll get a birds-eye-view of nature’s gift – animals in their own environment. Thank you for this stunning photograph, @beverlyjoubert. Over 30 years, filmmakers and Nat Geo Explorers at Large Beverly and Dereck Joubert have dedicated their lives to halting the decline of big cats in the wild.

Isn’t it fabulous to hear Peter Noble through the jeep’s speaker system? Zebra Audiobook Jill Wallace – YouTube Thank you to the lovely Pauline Baird Jones for creating this adorable video for me! To say Peter is ‘narrating’ “Zebra” (the audio) is a dismal understatement. This famous talent, winner of The Audie and The Rone is ‘LIVING’ “Zebra”.
