A bit about my life:

Since retiring in 1998 we have spent 6 months in Minnesota and 6 months in Mesa, Arizona. We have travelled extensively...mostly cruises. We enjoy the 12 grandkids and life at the lake. Our kids all have adjoining places on Thunder Lake. Golf is our main form of entertainment, in both MN and AZ.

What is the best thing that has happened to you since we graduated?

Our four children and their families...12 grandchildren (and no they are not "cheaper by the dozen!" Next is retirement without a doubt! Travelling around the globe! Being able to live six summer months in Minnesota at the lake, and six months in the warm sunshine of Arizona! None of this would have been possible without good health...for which we are very greatful...God is good!

School Memories:

Working with Russ Anderson as student DJ's for KBUN on Saturday mornings, potlucks, slumber parties, working summers at Ruttgers, working winters at Glass Block Drug, marching with the band for footall games with snow on the ground,wearing wool burmudas/sweaters/knee highs/flats in -30 degree weather,roller skating, state BB tourneys, cruising the college campus, playing BB with only 2 dribbles, and driving our teachers crazy with bells on our can-cans/felt skirts !

Name something still on your "Bucket List"

I would love to take an African photo safari....
