2017 was a year of many lessons. Being politically liberal in central Texas requires having a missionary attitude, as an evangelical Democrat!! Have also found some really balanced and accepting conservatives that are much like Dad was. Have enjoyed lively discussions about climate change and healthcare....it's a hoot.
One of the pictures includes my Sister, Frances, that was 2 years behind us. She is living in Decatur, GA.
Learning to date again and dating a fine man has been joyful and scary. The photograph attached is a mission trip to northern Mexico last month. The geology was stunning, a lot of ancient volcanic necks and it snowed too. The villagers taught us a thing or 2.
Being retired and finding a new purpose has been an adventure too, being a shade tree hydrogeologist is great but I miss the excitement of working against a deadline to bring a solution to the table. Helping in an Orchard and getting to set up a monitoring station during irrigation and non irrigation events, at the Orchard, has been a treat.
