Melvin's Story
Life
HEY Y'ALL - Boy have I had a full life since H.S. Most of you that knew me, knew that I spent alot of time in church, and did for several years after, until my divorce. I spent 4 yrs in the Air Force, (6 mo) as a cop, then a carpenter for the rest of the time. Believe it or not, I spent my whole tour in TX, 1st in San Antonio (Lackland AFB) then Wichita Falls (Sheppard AFB).
When I got out, I started playing Country music in road bands, (25+ yrs) I've been to all but 3 states in our continental US, 3 providinces in Canada and the numerous border towns in Mexico.
I've lived in TX, WI, GA, TN, SC, CT, CO, NM and now I'm back in AZ. I've been fortunate enough to meet a WHOLE LOT OF WONDERFUL People, and see most of the phenominal sites America has to offer. What a Wonderful country we live in!
I have 2 beautiful kids, a son (22)...Expand for more
, a daughter (27) and a grandson (9).
I still play music on the weekends (it's my Sanity!) My stage name is "Mel Travis" and I have a website by that name ".com". I do home remodeling and have been helping a welder on the side. For relaxation, I ride a motorcycle. Here in Arizona, you can pretty much ride year 'round. Sure we have the desert but, we have a lot of mountains, lakes, pines and of course the Grand Canyon, 4 hrs from Vegas, 5 hrs from San Diego, and about 4 hrs from L.A.
I live my life to the fullest and the only thing I would change is to have spent more time with my kids, while they were growing up.
I still believe in GOD! I believe everything happens for a reason, Don't sweat the small stuff, keep a smile on your face and share it with as many people as possible!
I WISH YOU and YOURS THE BEST LIFE HAS TO OFFER - Mel
