When I was a young girl attending public school in the 1930′s, my city of Toronto, Canada had a population of less than one hundred thousand people. Now there are over 2.5 million people living here and of course it is still growing.
That population is not large compared to some cities in the far East such as Osaka, Japan, where my present day mentor and teacher Kevin Riley lives. Osaka has a population of over twelve million people.
It is so great to be able to reach people not only in Toronto or Osaka but anywhere in the world via the internet.
I met Kevin Riley in person last winter when he went to Atlanta, Georgia and I was able to be there too. If it were not for the internet none of these connections could have taken place. This is the reason I have nothing but praise for the World Wide Web.
I went to Atlanta again in August 2010 for #nams4 and attended the conference there. My daughter and granddaughter were there too. We learned a lot and met some wonderful internet marketers and made several new friends.

This is a video we shot in Atlanta. Kevin Riley came all the way from Japan to the #NAMS conference at the hotel where my daughter, granddaughter and I were staying.
Yesterday my granddaughter & I visited Rhodes Hall “The Castle On Peachtree Street” here in Atlanta.
The castle was built by Amos Rhodes as a permanent residence between 1902 and 1904. He called it “Le Reve” or “The dream”.
After Amos Rhodes’ death in 1928, his family deeded the house to the State of Georgia for historical purposes.
If you were to visit Atlanta, I recommend going to Rhodes Hall and taking your camera because they do allow you to take pictures inside as wel as outside.
In my next post I ‘ll reveal some more details about the history of Rhodes Hall and show you some great pictures.
Sibling rivalry – does it ever stop? I was the oldest of five children, most of us less than two years apart. I don’t remember always fighting with my younger sister when I was a pre-schooler. But maybe I better ask my mother first before I get too proud of my behaviour as a child. […]
This coming week will mark the fourth anniversary of my little great-grandaughter’s death. My grandson’s wife created a beautiful and moving memorial video for her. Although it will make you weep, I wanted to share it with you. Then I want you to hold your family a little closer and treasure them with all your […]
Five-year-old grandson loves to go to the library. I allow him to choose his own titles, which are usually about dinosaurs, bugs, lizards, or snakes. There is something about creepy crawlies that appeals to boys that age. His favorite television shows right now are Dinosaur Dan and The Dinosaur Train. Anyway, back to the books. […]
My youngest daughter and her family went camping last weekend. After their first night in the tent, Grandson had spots all over his forehead. Looked like he was attacked by an army of mosquitoes. By noon, Grandbaby Girl had them too and Grandson was covered. Being the all-wise grandmother I am, I looked at the […]
