Jennifer & Jonathan


Jennifer & Jonathan

Jennifer
Jonathan
Wonderful companions and inspiration for walking exercise. My husband  and I
took weekly walks on the beach with our buddies. They never got too much of
the exercise. As we drove the car to the beach they anxiously poked their wee
noses into the wind hardly able to wait arrival.

They gave us three puppies and many happy hours of enjoyment.
Their names were taken from the TV Hart to Hart characters.

Dreamer



Aviation in 1974 was available as a class at our City College, which because I was a dreamer I attended to completion. All that was left to complete my dream was the required number of hours in the air flying solo.  House wives & mothers of 6 really don't have that much time and money so those requirements are still waiting in the ether to be finished. Meantime I became a bus driver instead. The hours at class were not wasted as they helped me acquire a high school diploma.  It was my effort to convince my children it was worth it to stay in school. I had dropped out of school at 17 to run away from home and get married.

Waking Life


This movie has been watched 5 times to date. 
It has joined a place for me that only
 'A Beautiful Mind' has occupied. There is so 
much presented one wonders
if it will all become clear or if the entertainment
 is all that is necessary. Animation
like none I've seen before. Humor, insight 
and just plain interesting. Give it a chance,
It can't hurt.

My Last Car


This my last car was a gift from my son Scott Leif Gensler.
Because I had driven city buses this power machine did not
daunt me from driving it. Sad to say my driving days soon came
 to an end when I decided 'Little old ladies' aught not to be in
temptation's way. So the mighty red beast passed on to my 
Grandson Tad Murroughs. Must say Scott must have truly
trusted me as a driver.
