Hello to all my darling prairie dogs!

Happy 2019! Looking back on last year, it’s hard to believe anything could be better.

I had a wonderful summer at the Pilgrim House, my new home in Provincetown. Such fun to be at a new address on the eastside in new surroundings! And Ptown is one fun event after the other. I had a great time on the Boston Harbor float again at Carnival.

And when I got home, I had to head to Augsburg Park Library in Richfield! I read to a delightful and sweet group of children who ranged in age from 9 months to 9 years old. They were such good listeners and so interesting, I’m reminded that our young people always give me hope that we’ll all be OK if we let them take over!

Of course, I can’t ignore my other civic duty – VOTING! I don’t think I need to remind you that we’ll be gearing up for that again in the coming year! And this next time at the rodeo will be an important one!

I adore all my sponsors, Orbitz, Atlantis Events and Gay Palm Springs! Such fun and love from each of them. I get to be in Palm Springs every year for their festive and warm Pride in November. This year I rode the parade on my two-wheeler from my friends at Bike Palm Springs Rental.

The conclusion of 2018 was celebrating my 20^th year of doing holiday shows at the Illusion Theater in Minneapolis. Hard to believe I was just 9 years old when I started. And my KARE 11 buddy Pat Evans helped me celebrate on his TV show one snowy afternoon!

So I head into the new year with thanks to all of you who so faithfully support me and look forward to seeing many of you on the highways and byways this year! Check out my datebook to see my complete schedule of theaters and music halls and cruises and resorts and, of course, Ptown!

Make your resolution to be kind and loving in 2019!

XO and one for Jesus,
Miss R
