An interesting bit of history.....

Years ago I met a really neat guy. We were stationed in Germany at the same time. We ran the boyscouts together and have several silly stories. He and his wife were good friends.

Me and Chris - don't quite know why the pic is so small Chris introduced me to Tom (his brother) and between that and my desire to get my career started ANYWHERE but El Paso, the move to Florida was born. Life has a way of turning out just the way it should, today was the first real day I saw Tom in SEVEN years. He looks great, is successful, and is happily married.
A gator - isn't Florida something? After things didn't "work out" (or they did, depending on how you look at it), I chose to stay right here - I am home.

Thanks Tom for encouraging me to move here - I've since created an amazing life.
