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.

Lapping Up being in the lap of Luxury

Deerfield where the kids invited me for a day of rest after the storing of the RV. I have 35 year old expectations in a much older carcass. The job of storing was a big one. The good news is I pitched a lot of stuff. I feel good about the job. David, from the storage yard met me. He is huge and gets fatter every year. I worried watching him gulp air.

The Boca Bash was yesterday. All kinds of boats met in the bay by the Boca Raton yacht club. I photographed many boats of all sizes, shapes and description-same with the people. I'll post them later in an album. Great fun to watch as they paraded past.

The heavens opened today for a huge deluge and tornadoes from Mississippi to Largo in the keys. I am glad to be here. Miss Lori just brought lunch. I've been mapping routes-like I always do- hoping to see some new country and sights along the way but also keeping the possibility of a mad dash home in mind too. Some dodgy weather along the way.
