Editor’s Welcome

Lauren C. Nielsen, Editor

Dear Sisters,

I know that many of you are traveling this year. With our TWO Danish Sisterhood trips to Denmark, it seems like nearly everyone is over in Denmark. I've been seeing many lovely photos coming from the trips so far and look forward to seeing even more and to hearing all of your stories! As for myself, no big travel plans here, so I'll have to live vicariously through all of the Denmark trip pictures I come across. I did, however, make it over to Door County, WI recently where we were able to spend time with friends and family, and explore some new spots--even though I've been going there my entire life! There's something especially wonderful about traveling and exploring new places or new aspects of places that you've been to already. I invite you all to share your stories of travel for upcoming issues...whether you've been traveling recently or if it's been awhile! I'd also like to remind everyone to start thinking about those Holiday Ads! The holidays are right around the corner. Hoping you are all well and enjoying the last rays of summer and beginnings of autumn.

Until next time,
