Gail's Story
Life update.......5/2/22
Why does time go by soooo quickly as we get older? When you're a teenager wanting to grow up and have freedom, time flows like molasses! At least for me, my independence seemed like it might never come! Little did I know, I had a rebellious side in me that took over in 1978 when I finally moved out from under my mother's thumb. Those of you who knew me well understand what a HUGE task that was for me. But I digress....
Spring of 2022 finds me in my 12th school year as an administrative assistant with the Camas School District. At this point, I plan to work one more school year and retire on July 1, 2023. I'm looking forward to being able to travel in our travel trailer and being able to camp when everyone else ISN'T camping. The 6 years I lived in Newport, OR, I hated all the RVs going through town once September came and now I plan to be one of those people! I love my trailer and always sleep so much better in it.

it's all about mindset since I'm almost always on vacation when in the trailer. And now I've finally taken up golf so a lot of our trips are planned around which courses we'd like to visit and play.
I'm still in the same long-term relationship since 2008. My honey is my best friend and also my golfing partner. Between us, we now have 10 grandchildren with two more expected in June/July. Only 4 live in the Portland area with only 3 that I actually get to spend time with now. That's a whole other chapter that I'm tired of rehashing. I've cried way too many tears and spent too many sleepless nights so it will just have to be what it is for now.
I enjoy seeing so many of you on Facebook and truly regret that I wasn't able to attend our 40th reunion. And now 45 has gone by (thank you, COVID!) and we're speeding towards our 50th. I hope to see all of you wherever it is we get together. Until then, I wish you all good health and the best life has to offer.
