Response to Original message |
| 151. That is the Hearst Castle in San Simeon behind her.... |
|
And again, what a fantastic photo of her and the goodness surrounding her. I feel honored to hang out here on this board with such kind and thoughtful folks as you all at DU.
She gives me hope at 50 that I may still be a force at 85!!
