35 Years

San Diego, CA

Today I’m entering my 35th year of living in San Diego! That is almost half my age! I grew up in Colorado Springs and lived in Colorado the first 28 years of my life, and I assumed I would remain there. But after a nine year stint as a dean at Cornell College in Mt. Vernon, IA, I moved here to become a consultant. (More info on that if you click on the picture below).

This is a great place to live, yet there are parts of me that wish I had spent my life in Colorado Springs.

Cool shots of you and San Diego suits you. Although, where you grow up is always where your heart is.

I was once told, "The secret to happiness can be found in stability..." It seems like you have found and mastered the secret.

Just look at you, a young hippie of sorts. Nostalgia. Our lives takes twists and turns and I think you took the right turns.
