A little about me:
I am a native Californian
from Los Angeles (Alhambra), and I now live in Phoenix, Arizona.
As a kid I grew up in Pasadena and Palos Verdes, CA. ...went
to High School in Tustin, Orange County; college in San Francisco,
back to Pasadena, got married and moved to San Diego (yucch),
got divorced and moved back to San Francisco... then lived in
Berkeley for 4 years. After that, I moved to Death Valley National
Park for a year& a bit, which turned out to be one of the
greatest experiences of my life. I lived in Las Vegas, NV. for
three years, then lived in Bullhead City (across from Laughlin,
Nevada) on the Colorado River for a year, moved here to the Phoenix
area, Oct. 2002, in search of a better job and a little more
excitement! Yeah... I've moved around a bunch, but I am confident
that I've found the place where I will stay, given that its a
large city with entertainment, decent economy, & activity,
and its still my beloved Desert! Found a great house in a fantastic
neighborhood, and hope to stay here for a long, long time! After
a 3+ years, I LOVE ARIZONA, for the climate, incredible landscapes,
super-friendly people, independent politics, & great lifestyle.
I've had a very adventurous
and exciting life so far, with lots of adversity, but relatively
little pain and suffering! I love to travel, and so far I have
been to England, Wales, France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Morocco,
Belgium, The Netherlands, Italy, Mexico (my favorite country),
Argentina, Guatamala, and Canada. Next, I want to go to Eastern
Europe (Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic), Peru, and Egypt. I
love playing guitar & have since the age of six. I feel best
when I'm outdoors hiking, camping, exploring, & worshipping
the Sun ... Spent a great many hours, weeks, and years adventuring
the California deserts and mountains. I collect and watch old
movies, (Greta Garbo!!!); I like going to art museums, dining
out, entertaining and cooking, talking on the phone, drinking
French champagne, shopping, the symphony, rock concerts, Oakland
Raiders games, etc. etc. etc. Basically, I'll try anything twice!!
