About Me

Name:
Location: Arapahoe, Wyoming, United States

(Note: Blogs read from bottom to top; scroll down for beginnings, scroll up for most current.) After 30 years in public administration and four degrees, as well as numerous workshops with luminaries in Education and Public Policy, life in a slower lane became a goal. Most recently I have done policy writing and consulting for the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone Tribes. Mostly, I am just coasting slowly and gently downhill these days-seeking joy where I can find it before the glorious ride ends.

Shhhh....

Very early in the morning. We are outta here in a short while. Had a great farewell dine out at the Whale's Rib-sort of a Svilar's of fish, local place, almost funky, busy beyond belief, with amazing food. What a season!

We probably won't even make it out of Florida today- it is a long state. The plan is to still try for the Natchez Trace Parkway via Hattiesburg, Mississippi.

Matt's surgery went better than expected-they fixed both bone and soft tissue, discharged him the same day and he is home in misery-lots of pain. Percocet and oxycodone are not helping all that much. Bless his heart.

Need to pack up this computer and hit the road, toad!
