This was sent to me on email today...
The National Trust for Historic Preservation has named Wilmington among its Dozen Distinctive Destinations. Each year starting in 2000, the National Trust for Historic Preservation has named a "Dozen Distinctive Destinations" appealing to tourists' taste for historic places. It recognizes American cities and towns that are committed to historic preservation and community revitalization. The National Trust said Wilmington has a charm and style dating back nearly three centuries. It has riverboats, battleships, grand old mansions, gardens, Civil War sites and historic museums.
So for those that have asked for a bit more about where I live --- there you go! :) It really is a neat little city we live in! :) [although technically I live in a suburb now]
and here's another entry about Wilmington that I wrote on my old blog!

That's all I have for today - I am still soo overflowing with words & thoughts - but just haven't gotten any of them down on the blog yet because we have had a such fun-filled and packed week so I haven't had a lot of time to write!
Hope everybody has a wonderful weekend! :)
