Everything was booked full, and prices were sky high, but it was well worth it because we got the opportunity to view the gorgeous natural mountain streams, lakes, and ponds, and witness wild animals in dramatic...
Elizabeth Youngman-Westphal Special to The Village News There are very few things that can be identified with a single word. Only a few come to mind like Coke, Facebook, Disney, Pepsi, Microsoft. But, with billions of people in the world, still, just a few are recognized by their one-word name: Gandhi, Elvis, Cher, Frank, Madonna, or Ringo.
