Carol's Story
Carol is from Long Beach, California. Her schools include Long Beach Polytechnic High School. She later attended Long Beach City College. She works(ed) as a U.S. Mail Contractor. Had mail contracts from LA - Omaha and another from Oakland - Denver plus 6 smaller Star Routes in the Sacramento/Stockton/Tahoe area.
One of Carol's favorite quotes is:"If in doubt, don't.".
I was skinny in School and finally just this year put on a little weight, not 125 lbs and I shrunk an inch.

rand Children, 5 Great-Grand Children. I'm a work-a-holic.
I had US Mail Contracts, cross country and 5 little Star Routs in the Sierras around Tahoe and above Stockton.
After those contracts just plain trucking, all 50. I learned to drive the semi's and loved it so much that's what I did when I made an early retirement which lasted for 34 years. I still miss driving but love going up and down this mountain. So I now drive UBER when I'm not restoring my house and yard.
