New to World of Blogging

Hello Friends & Family!  I've been meaning to get this blog up and running for months now.  We've been without consistent internet access for several months which has hindered the process.  We are all SO HAPPY to be able to communicate now and catch up on the news we've been missing.  I was inspired this week by reading my friend Marilee's great blog.  It was so nice to read details about her life, you know the kind she would have told me at lunch, if I was there.  And to see pictures of everyone.  So, thanks Mar for the inspiration!  When I started this blog, I had the title "Isn't Life Grand" which reminded me of something my Grandmother used to say. However, she lived within a 45 mile radius of where she was born her entire life and I'm sure could not have imagined doing what I am doing now.  After moving to Brazil, I think "Wild Life" is a better title!

I hope you enjoy reading about our lives in Sao Paulo as much as I enjoying reading about your lives in the land of milk & honey!  Oh, and peanut butter!
