Sherluvshockey

I live in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. While I live near the ocean I am a mountains kind of girl. I have a love/obsession with moose and cats. I live in the sunshine state, yet I would rather live somewhere with 4 seasons especially fall and winter. I love the cold and rain. I have never traveled the world, so swapping postcards gives me an opportunity to experience a little slice of the world. I am married with 1 son and 2 cats. We are a family of hockey obsessed people. I read just about everything. I binge watch historical shows on Netflix. We also like to visit lighthouses and waterfalls. Our goal is to visit some in each state.
