Description
Hi, my name is Grace and I am a retired school teacher. I like to spend my days in my well established gardens or visiting with family. I am an experienced traveller and been all around the world. I enjoy meeting people and sharing stories. I have two adult children, four grandchildren and four great grandchildren. All live here in Whanganui near me. I am in need of some help with my gardens particularly the sloping banks as I am finding these too challenging to navigate. I am close to town and a premier park of Whanganui.
