Doreene's Story

Life I spent three years in the Navy (Waves) having enlisted a month after graduation. Just an interesting tidbit. While at my duty station, I was running down the ladder (stairs) to deliver a message to air traffic control when I literally ran into an officer coming up the ladder. Not knowing whether to salute, I just turned red from embarrassment. Come to find out later, the officer was Astronaut White who perished in the Appolo Spacecraft very soon after. It was at my duty station in Corpus Christi, Texas where I 430 met my husband Andy; we've been married for 36 years. Our son Eric is 30 years old. He's getting married in September 2005; this will be the first marriage for both him and his fiance' Rhonda. Eric is a CAD as in Computer Assisted Draftsman and Rhonda is a Pharmacist. We live in Spokane, WA where I retired from Merck-Medco Pharmaceuticals. Now I...Expand for more
occasionally write for the local newspaper. When not writing, we travel in our RV or most recently just returned from a cruise to the Western Caribbean. Geez it's been 40 years since high school but in retrospect I've accumulated a lot of interesting experiences along the way and have very fond memories to look back on. So, it was well worth the trip. Andy and I are still on that trip of life. Just last October of 2006, we attended the Jimmy Kimmel Live Talk Show; not realizing that we were actually going to be part of the show. Our little skit was televised Coast to Coast Nationwide. What's that saying that Andy Warhol used to say, something to the effect we all should experience 15 minutes of fame in a lifetime. Well our experience of fame was about five or so minutes, enough time though to feel like a celebrity...back home in the Pacific Northwest.

A little postcript to my Easter photos and video snippets that I have posted on Facebook. This is the bunny cake that was in Women's World; both Andy and I made it; forty seven years of Marriage has prepared us on how to do
Somebody on facebook requested boot camp photos. Here is one that I came across; perhaps it can be of help. Company 22 Summer of 1965.....
Our son Eric and daughter-in-law Rhonda. The four of us recently returned from our Southern Caribbean Cruise. It was a wonderful cruise highlighted by the time we had with Eric and Rhonda. A big surprise when I entered our

I took the photo of our flag from the window of the motel that we were staying in Holiday, Florida. I always have camera in hand for the unexpected "picture"....
Andy and I  had two different thoughts about this photo....When I look at this photo of our Grandson Ryan, I thought jokingly "where's his yacht". On the other hand when Andy looks at the photo, he thinks of my Dad. My Dad

One of my hobbies is photography; I'm always taking photos. Anyhow this past week will go down in history re: The Eclipse...
I made these cucumber pickles today. The photo looks good but the verdict is out whether they taste good. Crossing my fingers !!!
Our Grandson Ryan riding one big camel....Oh my gosh, Ryan, you are one brave little boy...Go Ryan....
Retrospectively, I think that I lost my calling for National Geographic...I have always liked photography and anyone who knows me, knows I'm always taking photos and videos. I have always wanted to go on a Safari in Africa
Our Grandson Ryan's 6th Birthday Party at our YMCA...Here Ryan (in the center) with his Birthday guests...Our Grandson Ryan is growing up so quickly; Andy and I have to hang on with dear life to keep up with Ryan....
It is said that a picture is worth 10,000 words...So having said that, here sits our Grandson Ryan on the right and his cousin Kayden on the left...One can only wonder...what have these two mischievous boys been up to......
Thanksgiving Day 2017...let the shopping begin....Turkey and the fixings for starters followed by clearing the table, doing the dishes, gathering the leftovers, looking through the sale ads followed by taking a family photo
