Laura's Story
Wow! I can't believe it has been almost 29 years since our high school graduation! That means it was 30 years ago that I left good ole' Dumas, Texas and headed north with my family to Rawlins Wyoming. I went to junior high in Emporia, Kansas for the 7th grade and then moved to Dumas, Texas in 1976. I attended Jr. High and High School in Dumas until the end of my junior year. I wasn't really too happy with my folks for moving me just when I only had one year of high school left, but, in the end, it was a very good move. There was a lot I missed by leaving Dumas, but so much more I gained in Rawlins, Wyoming! I graduated from Rawlins High School in 1981. I went from being a Demon to an Outlaw!

e didn't start dating until after graduation. It's funny because we both attended junior high in Emporia, Kansas. I went to Dumas and he went to Rawlins in 1977. I guess it was fate! Jeff and I were married in August of 1983. In 1987, we moved the family to California and have been here ever since. We have two children--Kristopher, 25 and Kara, 23. And now we have a beautiful granddaughter--Alex who is just 8 months old. Jeff and I have been married for almost 27 years. He is an electrician for a local school district and I work for the state of California--yeah, furloughs and all!
For my old friends from Dumas who might actually remember me, drop me a line! I would love to hear from you! The same goes for those of you from Rawlins.
