Reading, Spending time with family and fur babies.

In my downtown, I enjoy reading fictional books. I am a huge fan of James Patterson. I like his books that are based from a detective point of view. I love spending time outdoors, especially with my family and fur babies. I have two beautiful, full blooded female German Shepherds. I like going on nice walks, to see the nice scenario, mother nature created.
