[Magdalen] decline of this list

[Ann Markle]

I, too, have missed Magdalen. I love traveling and doing supply work (all
the fun, none of the responsibilities). Just booked 10 days in Costa Rica.
Still have a camping trailer on Lake Erie, where I spend as much of the
summer as I can (new, updated trailer, though). Have a new doggie (well,
new to me in 2018) who is the love of my life. Tentative plans for 2 weeks
in Paris in September.
