I live in Alaska and have called AK my home for the past 28 years. I lived in South Dakota and Iceland. I have 6 kids that I am very proud of and 10 grandkids so far. I stopped working full time almost two years ago and now just work part time teaching Zumba classes and Hula hoop fitness. I still enjoy living in Alaska, however the November 30th, 2018 earthquake made me think it wasn’t such a fun place. I have learned how to repair drywall, door jams, toilets, cracks in walls,... :-( My husband and I are still into sailing and have a sailboat which we keep docked in Seward, AK; and we enjoy riding the Harley and driving our Corvettes still. Summers are short in the AK so I try to enjoy every minute with my garden and flower gardens!

It is amazing how things have changed. Remember having rifles hanging in pick up truck windows, in the school parking lot? Never locking your vehicle! Remember the pledge of allegiance being spoken every morning, with everyone standing and never contemplating to not stand. The suicide rate was lower and the drug overdose rates were lower. We went to school in good times! We were very lucky to be going to school in the 70s. I am thankful for that!
