As the sun’s rosey glow brought us 2023, much has happened in our lives and around the world and I have many things to share with my readers. But as the sun sets on this December, I want to end with some photos I’ve taken through the year. Some I have written about and others will be explained in my upcoming blogs. Enjoy, and wishing you a healthy and splendid New Year.






















What beauty you see in the world Susan and what beauty you bring to it.

Hello Janet, thank you for your comment and our continued connection. I’ve been pleased that the tour groups I’ve gone on, with OAT, have all donated to the needy causes in the various countries. The picture of the School children is where we donated school supplies. It was very touching seeing the wonderful reception with a school students that had so few resources. Wishing you a wonderful New Year. Susan, AKA Gowee Sue

Thank you Leslie for those kind words. I was born with the three “C’s” that I wrote about in a recent blog. Curiosity, Common Sense and Courage. Someone told me I forgot Compassion. And because of these traits, I lead this life as these photos present. I get bored easily and continue to look for Challeges…oops there’s another “C”. If some of you follow me, I will explore, adventure and be challenged to my grave, if most of you can put up with me that long!!!
