Where to start? How many years I've been married--approximately 23 but not all with one husband. Currently very happily married to a retired geology professor who was originally from NYC, NY. After my first four years of college in Mankato I spent a couple years in Savannah, GA with my first husband, then spent 34 years living in Denver, CO and the last ten in Loveland, CO. Spent many years getting educated; degrees from Minnesota State University (Mankato), University of Denver, and George Washington University. Retired at 50 from Lucent Technologies where I was Director of Project Management for Global Markets. Have been a doggy mom to many four-legged "children" over the years. Currently parenting a border collie and australian shepherd. I keep busy with a lot of activities including golf, watercolor classes and shows, skiing, hiking, scuba diving, traveling, reading -- on my own and with a book club, gardening, playing cards with our local group of card sharks, friday afternoon cocktail parties in the summer and monthly soup/chili get-togethers in the winter, rockies and broncos games, etc. Have begun working on my bucket list; have sky-dived, played pebble beach, and saw the total solar eclipse; more to follow. It's a wonderful life and I'm grateful for it all.
