It's been 28 years ago that I quit the Post Office.
I quit just before I was going to have my first child.
No, I'm not pregnant in this picture.
But this is me and my future husband Jim.
This is after two years carrying mail in Fountain Valley.
Did you notice my sweet hair?
What about Jim's HAIR!!
(He now sports a buzz)
and do you love the mustache?
It's just too sad that you can't see my
OH, SO COOL
culottes!
Don't be fooled.
We were the hot young couple.
(That's what we keep telling ourselves)

My Dad and My Mom

My dad was born in Emery, Utah.
(Oh yeah, A Utah farm boy)
My mom on the other hand
was born in Venice, California.
(A big time city girl.)
My dads dad died young of black lung.
(yes, he was a miner)
My mom was an only child.
( she was raised very adult)
Dads family moved to California.
( dad and his older brother worked to help out their mom)
(there were 3 younger kids to care for)
Moms dad was an engineer and they moved a lot.
( He came from Ireland and traveled the world)
And yet somehow, beyond comprehension...
They met
and dad wooed mom...
and wooed her
and wooed her.
(These stubborn Utah farm boys)
And they fell in
LOVE...
And I love them for that!
