Down on the farm in … Tanzania?? That would specifically be Gibbs Farm, ideally located in the green and fertile hills near the Ngorongoro Crater.

The last time the Dodgers won the World Series, I was literally a newborn fan. If someone had told me that during the course of 35 years with the hubby I would become this avid baseball person, I would have said “there’s no way.” I grew up attending countless games of two local basketball legends […]
