Hi

In 1997 Rocky and I built a house in the desert north of Phoenix.

I stopped working and spent a few years transforming raw desert into landscaped desert with plenty of habitat for birds and animals, including an occasional coyote, bobcat and snake. Gifts of a digital camera and a software program for genealogy provided me with new hobbies as well.

Rocky retired from an engineering job at Honeywell in May 2007 and we have now become "sunbirds", leaving here in May in our motorhome and returning with the cooler weather in October.

The landscape survives with the addition of a drip system and the hobbies give us reasons to be places and activities to keep us busy. We spent 2 summers traveling to the east coast including some time in Ontario, Canada and the other summers in the northwest. Since Rocky’s mother still lives in Lewiston and needs a little help, this will be another northwest summer.

We have 2 daughters: Jill and husband Tim have 2 children, Damian, 6 and Jack, 5; and Karen and her husband Jon have children Lorelei and Matthew, both 2. Tim and Jon both work for Intel and are a big help in keeping our computers working. Jon spends most of his holidays figuring out where we went wrong this time. Jill now works from home part time for an architect who was one of her former bosses. Karen teaches music in an elementary school on a 4/5 schedule. They live in Gilbert, Arizona an hour and a half from us.
