$ = $1.00 - $29.00, $$ = $30.00 - $39.00, $$$ = $40.00+ These are mostly candy and dairy tours and snack food tours, with a couple of soda factories and a honey factory. Some changes may have occurred from the time these were posted to when they are looked at. Always verify Factor Tours before heading out. Some require reservations and/or may not offer them anymore. There may also be additional classes, tours, or activities not mentioned here. Go to the factory website for more information.

I have traveled across the United States by car five times and have seen a large portion of the country, having visited all but seven states. Thankfully, I have already had the opportunity to visit both Hawaii and Alaska, so the states I still need to see are all within the lower 48. I thought it would be fun to share some of the unique places to visit along the way. There are many spots in the United States where, when you arrive, it almost feels like you’ve stepped into another country—not only because of the scenery, but also because of the people, the food, and the local accents. That’s one of the reasons I love traveling throughout the United States: there is always something new and fascinating to experience.

These are books that I have read and enjoyed. Some are lighthearted and fun, while others are dark, dangerous, and sad. I enjoy a large genre of books. Mostly I like mysteries, but I also enjoy real-life stories and crime novels, and I really enjoy when the book has an unsuspecting twist in the story. I also like to read books from local artists in my area because I can identify with the towns they put in their books. Some of the local artists are Danie Marie, Kathi Daley, and Todd Borg. I also have author friends who have written some wonderful stories, such as Sandra Farris and James Michael Pratt. Danie Marie is also a friend; I went to high school with her and Jim Pratt.

Here you will find different sites on Facebook related to Digital Scrapbooking. Some will be AI generated, and some will be traditional Digital Scrpabooking. They are all sites that I frequent or post in.

AI programs that I use and that my friends have expressed great satisfaction with. When deciding which program to use, I consider what is available, how well the program works, and whether the price fits within my budget. Some are free but offer limited functionality. Don't throw them away; they still have value despite the limitations. I do not use just one program; I use several. If one program does not meet your expectations, try another. At some point, I use each of these programs. I wouldn't remove them from my list of programs.
