I had a feature, called Julie’s Jewels, on Norns Triad Publications’ blog. I used it to share tidbits about my life, which I tied into book suggestions (because you know I love books). I thought it might be fun to do something similar here. Hence, the birth of this series, #NorthupNews.
The cool thing is that my partners, Sahara Foley and Karen J. Mossman, have similar features on their blogs. It is a way for us to connect with our readers. Hopefully, it is as interesting to you as it is for us.

In the last week of May 2023, Dusty and I went to The Edge at Fredericksburg with some friends. It is a lovely winery and resort in the Hill Country of Texas. They offer a beautiful tasting room with yummy foods, cozy tiny home cottages to rent, and lovely gardens to enjoy, which include putting greens, cornhole, and a pool.
We also drove past Stonehenge II, which was originally built in Hunt, Texas then moved to Ingram, Texas. It also has two replicas of the heads from Easter Island.
I love traveling!
