We moved to the PNW (MeLinda grew up in WAj) after retireing from the Baltimore City Public School System, well at least I retired. MeLinda recently retired from Lincoln County School System and we are enjoying the beautiful coast. I am a classical guitarist and music teacher, MeLinda taught communications and handled discipline in Baltimore, and Indian Education in Lincoln City.

Our children are spread from Turkey, London, Utah, Florida, Salem and here. We have to travel to be part of everyone’s life, and being retired, it is much easier for us to get away. Except for our Sofi, who travels when we camp (we have a 5 Wide Little Guy teardrop) and drive but can’t fly.

We expected our home to be filled with family, but life happens and we are hoping to both share our home through THS and have the dog sitter to boot.
