I’m really not sure what to say here, love the Dolly P. saying of course, who wouldn’t. But the 2nd pic looks dreadfully sad to me – all dead tree stumps along a lake shore. What happened here? Sorry, perhaps some ppl could explain to me what I missed.
Paradise is amazing. Visited Paradise a few years back and had a wonderful time. Spent an hour looking for rocks along the shore ended up with an agate for my classroom the size of Muhammad Ali’s fist.
We also have a Paradise in California, which is the saddest name for a city that experienced such a tragedy. Regretably, much of the town was destroyed in a 2018 wildfire. Wikipedia says there were 26,218 residents in 2010. Now, there are fewer than 9,000.
I love Dolly. She has so given back. So wise.

I forget where you’re from? I don’t think you’re in PA. Here, there are towns called Intercourse, Paradise, and Blue Ball. Super near each other.
