I was born in the midwest - grew up on a farm - and love animals. Moved to the Rockies for 20+ years and ended a marriage. Moved to the other coast and started a marriage and was ecstatically happy for 15 years. He passed away in 2017. Now, I'm mom to two, step-mom to five, and my best title of all...Gramma to three! Just when I thought love was through with me, I met and married my Beloved Buddhist, and now I'm step-mom to two more...looking at retiring with the love of my life.
When not working at our school-industry jobs, we live in the Pacific Northwest on a golf course in the desert! I enjoy riding pillion on a sleek BMW K1600GT motorcycle, joining beloved hubby on the back of our ATV, knocking out 100-mile challenges (I'm a devout walker), and doing DDPYoga. As a typical PNWer, I wear flannel, hike, and partake in porter and stout microbrews and gourmet coffee. In my free time, I am a waterfall seeker, a ghost-town hunter, an online gamer, a Tolkien fan, a movie aficionado and a citizen of the Marvel Universe.
* Tim and Jen, Dan the Man--never forgotten
Happily married faithful wife of one!
