Biography
I'm just a run-of-the-mill ORF (old retired fuddyduddy), traveling about the country with my terrific husband Chris and our spoiled budgie Bubba in our 40' Beaver motorcoach. Update: Beloved Bubba died; Emily ran away from home, and now we are temporarily "bird less" until we get back from this winter's travel out of the country.
We've been to most of the U.S. states over the past 10 years (we did take 2 years off to live in a house in Virginia, but we try to forget that time) including a great multi-month trip to Alaska. We have a MotoSat dish on the roof to keep us in touch with the family and friends, no matter where we are.
I enjoy travel (of course), history (reading about it, visiting museums, seeing the actual locations), genealogy (it's an addiction), sports (watching them), computers (another addiction), kids and grandkids, reading, writing, photography... Too many hobbies, not enough time. And now it's gourds - burning, carving, painting...
One of these times we'll settle down, preferably some place where it is warm - Texas, maybe? In fact we've recently entered a "12-step" recovery program - trying to withdraw from full-timing. So far, it's a rental house in Yuma in the winter.
