I’m terminally curious about what might be over the next rise or beyond the next bend. Every time I’ve driven over the Carquinez Strait, I’ve wondered about both the towns of Benicia and Martinez, viewed only from the bridges, above. I’m dying to get
This outfit had a bit of a flapper vibe. I’ve always been a fan of a boyish silhouette, but will never possess one. (Instead, I have perfectly unnecessary, child-bearing hips.) I’m faking a flapper look with short hair, pearls, and a hip camouflage.B...
