The future’s bright, the future’s clear…
So..the future..that space in front of us that no one can predict. Unless you can read people's minds, that is. I can't anyway and I don't plan on starting! The last few weeks I have been asking myself in what direction do I want to take ClearskiesCamino, if any. I have been plugging away, doing …
6 Things I Did in 2018

So I still do that and the centre re-opens …
