Greetings from Watertown!
After working in local radio for over 15 years, I decided to try something different and managed a restaurant for a friend for over 4 years (although I learned a lot about the food industry and managing employees it's something I would never do again). I am currently the marketing manager for Enercept (we manufacture and sell Structural Insulated Panels world wide - www.enercept.com). I would rather be retired and golfing and traveling. I have two grown sons: Robert, 34, who lives in Gresham, OR with his wife, Brie and their 5 yr old son, Jaxson. And Ryan, 31, who is currently stationed in Florida, he and his wife, Rachel, have two children Savannah who is 18 month old and Sean who is 3 months old. I am still with my partner/boyfriend, Burdette Drake (Bur), who makes my evenings and weekends a lot more fun than work. Life is good!
Some thoughts on growing older:
"Youth is not a time of life - it is a state of mind. It is not a matter of red cheeks, red lips and supple knees. It is a temper of the will; a quality of the imagination; a vigor of the emotions; it is a freshness of the deep spring of life. Youth means a tempermental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over a life of ease. This often exists in a man of fifty, more than a boy of twenty. Nobody grows old by merely living a number of years; people grow old by deserting their ideals." - Samuel Ullman
Stay young!
