Favorite School Story or Funny Memory you'd like to share

My high school years were pretty quiet. I was involved in the Concert Choir all 4 years. I worked as a carhop at a rootbeer stand for a couple and supported my horse with the money that I made. Other than that, it was a pretty quiet existence, never even ditching a class. Then, I was arrested on Graduation night because we were out in the boonies drinking! Oh horrors, nobody ever did that!

Favorite teacher(or teachers)?

Lane Justus - Concert Choir
Dexter Johnson - Junior English

What did you do after graduation?

Worked for a finance company, then insurance companies for almost 30 years. Left the insurance world, worked with my lawyer/CPA husband until we retired in 2006.

Now I volunteer with Schnauzer Rescue of Texas.

Where else have you lived?

moved to East Texas, Kilgore, in 1980. Moved to Hopkinsville, KY in 1983, back to Tucson in 1985. We moved to Austin Texas in August 2006 and we are still here after 18 years. Austin is a great city but experiencing overgrowth in population. It is way too big now, so we stay out in the 'burbs for the most part.

Where have you traveled?

"I've been everywhere!" Not really, but I have been a lot of places, including Europe, The Netherlands, The Caribbean, Aruba, Canada, Mexico, Costa Rica, to name a few. I have been to all 50 states and US Territories.

Where is your favorite place to go?

Lake Tahoe, Aruba, most beach destinations

Favorite Movies:

Dirty Dancing, Top Gun, Shawshank Redemption, The 6th Sense, Top Gun-Maverick. Some very old ones, Funny Girl West Side Story and Paint your Wagon.

Favorite Music:

60's mainly, older country music and a mix of all kinds.

What concerts have you been to? Which were your favorites?

Elvis, George Strait, Clint Black, Luke Bryan. Several years ago but I am old and so I forgot.

King George is my favorite.

Favorite Books:

New: The Women by Kristen Hannah. A story about nurses in Viet Nam. An absolute must read!

Any John Grisham, James Patterson, Michael Connelly book

Comments:

I worked in the insurance industry for close to 30 years, then worked with my husband with his law/CPA tax practice for the last 10 years. We are now retired and enjoying our life in Austin Texas. I have 3 dogs, all miniature schnauzers . All of them are rescued dogs. I also work with a miniature schnauzer rescue group. My husband's sister lives in still lives in Pinetop, Arizona with his wife. I enjoy traveling, photography and stuff with the dogs.

Well, it doesn't surprise me that you were an ADA, but the hunter and gun thing threw me off. In case you do not remember me, I was your next door neighbor on Eli Dr. You played the violin, I played the viola. So hello to you.
