Other Interests
While at Sheridan College, I got my first taste of web design, but it lay dormant for several years, until I volunteered to set up a web site for a then-new charity Starthrower Foundation.
After setting up the Starthrower Foundation site, I set up my own site, Snapshotjourneys.com, on which I continue to work. I find web site design and maintenance endlessly absorbing and challenging, and a lot of fun!
I also write my own travel blog ~ Snapshot-Travel-Blog and Brueckner Rhododendron Gardens.
Evelyn Hannon at Journeywoman.com, a Toronto Canada-based website for travellers, was a fabulous support and mentor in travel and writing about travel.
