Star Wars

The Solo: A Star Wars Story Junket Was Out of This World

May 23, 2018 By Marta Darby Leave a Comment

A long ago, in a galaxy far, far away... When I first saw those words crawling across a screen back in May of 1977, I didn't realize that the film, Star Wars, would have such an impact on my life for years and years to come.
