Still have family around Oroville?

nope.

If you don't live in Oroville, would you ever move back?

hmmm....nope.

School Story:

I left all of you wonderful people in my Jr year. Ran away from home and got married. eeek...Out of the frying pan and into the fire. Attended Beauty College, Business school and Columbia School of Broadcasting. Learn something new every day. Life is school.

What's your story since high school?

Married for nearly 18 yrs before being paroled. Two Children. Worked several years as a hairdresser, worked several other jobs before falling into Radio in Atlanta Ga. Loved it. Got a chance to mouth off and get paid for it. Worked several years in stations in the south before moving home to Ca. I Did a Morning show in California's central valley for 15 years while programming several stations at the same time. Married Cliff, a wonderful man who died 5 yrs later of cancer. After 25 yrs in Radio I retired to a little house in Wa on my daughters property. I spend time with my Grandsons, lots of time in my glass studio and travel a lot!

Do you still see/talk to/hang out with any classmates? Who?

I ran into Andrea Mires a few years ago and had a wonderful visit, but then lost contact with her.

What are your interests, hobbies, avocations?

I started doing stained glass about 30 yrs ago, then worked it into fusing a few years ago. It's very similar to stained glass.. just cooked in a kiln. I have pieces featured in gallerys in Colorado, New Mexico, and California. Check out my website at www.whimsyglass.com and let me know what you think! I also love photography and usually take literally thousands of pictures on our trips. Thank goodness for Digital!

Do you travel much?

As much as possible. Lots of cruises. Vegas, New York, Chicago, Colorado, traveling through the southwest, Mexico, the Carribean and Europe. I have spent over 9 weeks in the past couple of years traveling through Europe. I love love love France. In Oct of '08 I got off a cruise ship in Barcelona Spain, rented a car and just wandered France for three weeks. What an experience.

What countries have you been to?

France, Italy, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Spain, Portugal, Beligium, Netherlands, Gibralter, England, Mexico, Canada, The Panama Canal, Costa Rica, Jamaica and most of the carribean countries.

Have you done anything that would surprise us? Body piercings? Tatoos? Unusual trips, jobs, etc.

I think one of the neatest things is that being in radio allowed me to meet all the artists and groups that we listened to when we were growing up. I've shared conversation and a microphone with the likes of Johnny Rivers, The Beach Boys, Chicago, Peter Frampton, Paul Revere and the Raiders, Three Dog Night, and so many others. I've twisted on stage with Chubby Checker and was lucky enough to work on several projects with Wolfman Jack before we lost him a few years ago.
