Lynda's Story
Well
After High School I went to Antelope Valley Junior College(played a little tackle football in the L.A. Colliseum before the Rams and Saints played-promoting women's athletics). I then went to U.C.L.A. and majored in Kinesiology and ran track(the first women's track team at U.C.L.A.). I went to California State University Chico for my graduate work and to get my teaching credential. While I was there I coached my first track team at Paradise High School. My first teaching and coaching job was at Burney Junior-Senior high school. After three years there I went back to Southern Calif and worked at Yucca Valley High School/coached(both my husband and I worked at the same high school). In 1984 I divorced my first husband(I had three dauhters) and went to work at Nellie Coffman middle school in Cathedral City. In 1989 I remarried and eventually ended up in Columbus, Georgia where I worked for 12 years at Eddy Middle School. In between there I picked up a couple of extra degrees(Masters and a Ed.S degree). I now teach and coach at Columbus High School(magnet program). I have about 4 years to retire. Inbetween all of this I have traveled all over the world, plus all 50 states. I am going to Russia this summer(08). I was a Fullbright Master Teacher in Japan in 2005. At this time I am single (conflicts in careers) and staying very busy teaching/coaching cross country and ...Expand for more
track and field and doing school musicals(choreography) and teaching college classes out at Ft. Benning. I guess I stay too busy to get bored!
I have retired from the State of Georgia (teaching), ( end of 2013) but I am doing a little subbing and I am still teaching college classes at Ft. Benning. To update on grandkids I now have four grandsons, two granddaughters. I am still traveling (my passion). This last summer I was in Hawaii soaking up the rays and checking out the volcanoes on the Big Island. I am probably going to Europe this summer with my 88 year old mother who is still going strong-good genes). When I get a chance I will update with more info and some new pictures. I did go on a cruise with my mother in the Med. the summer of 2014 for two weeks. It was interesting since both of us lost our luggage-I finally got mine back in Venice, but my mom didn't get hers until after we got home. I also managed to delete all 500 pictures on the last day of the trip! This summer 2015 I am in Florida right now, and will go to Kansas to see my mother who is still driving on her own every spring back to Sedan Kansas where she and my Dad were raised. Here I am in 2016 still working (more than I want to-ha), and still traveling. My middle daughter Malinda and her family are finally back from Taiwan. My oldest daughter is back in Calif. and my youngest is in Canada right now.
