More about me

I'm a Navy Brat, Navy Wife and Navy Mom and proud of it. I became interested in Archeology the day I discovered National Georgraphic Magazine in the home of my Aunt. Ive worked for a newspaper, library and radio station. I love photography and reading.

I am a Yankee by birth and a Rebel by choice. After living the majority of my life on the East and West Coasts, my husband retired from service to live in Tennessee.

I long to travel but have only visited England and spent one day in Tijiajuana. My dream is to participate in an EarthWatch Dig--soon.

I am the mother of four children, three boys and a girl, all grown and have nine grandchildren. I still work part-time but it seems full.
