April 2003
The beaches of LA had become tiresome to Hollywood starlet Maru. . .

. . .she needed to stop and smell the azaleas.

Maru went to Virginia to delight in the dogwood. There, she was happy to find some couture by Madam Margaret (aka "The Cookie Queen of Fauquier County.")

One evening, Maru said "Rest, Schmest! I want to go dancing!"

At the club, she met her new best friend, Sheena-chan!

The two Blythes were ready for their next adventures, and happy to be in their new home.
