deeply involved in knitting as her marriage begins to unravel. Through knitting she finds a way to begin again. See details below on her talk and please come! This will be a real treat.

Friday night join us for a talk detailing the Keys of Life with former NBC newsman Randolph Rogers.

Randy also offers individual Past Life Regressions. He'll be doing that here on Thursday. See below.

I hope you are enjoying your summer. We've been spending a lot of time at the farm in Frederick and I can't tell you how amazing and fresh the mornings are. The organic garden is producing produce like mad! Sometimes it's hard to get me back onto 70 East...but breathe books beckons, doesn't it?!

Love to all of you and hope to see you soon,

Susan

It is a true story about who we are, why we are here and how we are all connected. This workshop will unlock your mind by opening your eyes to the synchronicities in life.
