CAREER AND SPOUSE’S CAREER
I am still Postmaster at White's City, N.M.
I am on my 23rd year here. This
post office is near the Carlsbad Caverns. and Come and see the Caverns and see
me. Harold works for an organization called Carlsbad Assoc. for Retarded
Citizens as ground maintenance and supervisor of utilities.
He has been there for the last ten years.
The last 3 he just built a camp ground and Challenge Course.
Really nice.
PLANS FOR RETIREMENT
I guess I will probably retire in about 10 years. I hope to do some traveling and climb some more High Points.
I don't know when Harold will retire or what he plans on doing.
HOBBIES
My hobbies are bowling, canning, arts & crafts, hiking and spoiling
grandchildren. I have a goal of
trying to see how many High Points in the U.S. I can hike. I have 7 under my belt now. I
also hold the record for being the oldest to complete all of the elements on
this challenge course. I challenge
you to come and try it.
OTHER
God has been very good to us. We have very healthy children and grandchildren and we are too as far as we know now.
