This blog is the opportunity for me to share those activities, events, programs, etc. which I have run across in my daily journey in order that others are enlightened. It is my hope that this blog will encourage others to post comments and share their daily information ventures as well. I'm sure there is something you have come across that someone else can benefit from. "What's On My Mind . . ." is about sharing your knowledge to benefit others. I'm sure you will be blessed in return.
