Gena's Story

Living in Buffalo, Texas. Married to a wonderful man, coming up on our 29th anniversary. Met him in a honky tonk in Austin. Wasn't lucky enough to have kids. We do have 3 dogs. I do get to claim his grandkids as mine. Our granddaughter is an A&M grad (2010) -- Gig 'Em Aggies! The grandson attended Sam Houston State -- Go BearKats! We have a beautiful great-grandson, Torin. I graduated from Sam Houston State University with a BBA. After graduation, went to work in Dallas for Southwestern Bell -- followed Mom and Dad's footsteps into telecommunications. Moved to Austin in '83 to open the first AT&T office there. After 20+ years in telecommunications was laid off -- bummer. Went to work in software development for 18 months -- laid off again -- phooey!. Decided to leave Austin and moved to Huntsville, Texas. We bought a barber shop for Gary to "play" in (a GREAT money maker) and I worked in the IT Department for the prison system -- hated working for the state -- too much red tape to get anything done efficiently. After 3 1/2 years there left and moved back to Central Texas -- I missed "home". Worked at Southwestern University in the Admission Office in Georgetown for 7+ years. Quit my job on June 3, 2013, sold our home in 2 days, packed up and moved to Buffalo, TX. Love the ...Expand for more
small town life. Finding out I have more kin folks than I ever knew. The City Limits sign says there are 1804 people living here. Guess we've boosted that population up to 1806. We both enjoy archery and gun hunting mainly for deer and elk. We also love traveling to the Rocky Mountains when ever we can. Spent our 20th Honeymoon in a 100+ year old log cabin in the mountains for SW Colorado. No running water, no electricity, the outhouse was broken (yes it really was). Road 3 hours on horseback to reach the cabin. Slept on a feather bed and had a gentleman who cooked the most exquisite old time southern home cooked meals you can imagine and all done on an antique wood burning cook stove. At night, you could almost touch the stars. Our 25th Honeymoon was spent in a cabin in Montana not far from the Blackfoot River on a 37,000 acre ranch. We were in the same area where the movie "A River Runs Through It" was filmed. The scenery was spectacular! I highly recommend you planning a trip to this breath taking ranch. Do a web search on Pawsup Resort to get details. We are looking forward to many more romantic stays in the Rocky Mountains and being close to nature. Hope you and your loved ones are as lucky as we are to have good friends and a loving family. My best to each of you. Gena
