lovely bride to be and we were married in '73. I have a step-son who I raised as my own son.I worked ten years in retail and in '79 my wife and I decided to take a "gamble" in the gaming industry where we worked for twentyeight years having just retired recently. The last sixteen years I held the position of Pit Boss.Having no regrets about my decision to make A.C. my home I am now ready to pull up stakes and move on , my wife being born and bred in A.C. has just come around to my way of thinking, we don't know where yet but we are definitely looking.Our grand-daughter is nineteen so that's not a problem, she can always visit (LOL).That just about sums it up for the most part.Still have ralatives and lots of friends in the big"W" so don't be surprised if one day I"ll be saying "I'm Back".
