Birthdays

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN DAVID
It's hard to believe that 45 years have passed since we had our first child in a military hospital in Montgomery, Ala.  It was a time of strife in the country with the civil rights marches but our focus was on the birth of our son.  Two days after he was born, Kennedy was shot.  While we watched all the events on television in horror, our amazing son occupied our time and energy.  We have enjoyed watching him grow and become an excellent father (just look at Samantha if you don't believe me), a good husband (Sandy can either agree or disagree with me), a wonderful teacher and a good human being.  But first and foremost he is our son and we are proud.

About Me

We retired after years of being in the computer support business, Jane with Brulin Corp and John with Unisys. We tried tent camping but finally settled on RV living. While we are part timers now, we hope to move to becoming full-timers eventually. John works on his HO model of Ellis, KS UP railroad and Jane persues her search for used books to read and sell on Amazon. We winter in Apache Junction, AZ and summer in Indiana.
