#039 – Hodgson Water Mill
Robert was anxious to get out of the house. It was about noon and he just wanted to GO! He didn’t tell me his plan. I don’t think he had a plan really, just to go south. We headed south on Hwy 160 out of Springfield, MO. We went through little towns we haven’t …

For as long as we’ve known each other, I had no idea of his talents with making handcrafted leather items. I’m one lucky lady to have several purses and notebook covers made especially for …
