Tonya 's Story

Life If you are reading this, you either remember me, or are just curious! Former Garfield HS student Tanya L. Krajcsi (Kracy, as my Grandfather was dubbed at Ellis Island) I lived up on North Fruitridge--drove a red 65 mustang (sounds much more glamourus than it REALLY was--my dad and uncle Russ had to put it back together after my dad bought it for $175) drop-top, during my Soph year--which was Garfield's last year (I don't claim TH North) I dated Bob Carlysle (Tech), Danny Abel (Garfield-short stint), Steve McKimmy (Wiley) and Mark Wagle (Tech) (whom I later married and 'got out of Dodge with!") from the Seelyville Wagles. One of my best friends and cohorts in 'crime' at GHS was Barb Sutton--there was also Deb Lenyo, Patty Dean.... Ring any bells? To make a very long story short after living about everywhere in this US and having 4 gorgeous and talented daughters, I now call the San Luis Valley, in south-central Colorado, my home. Livin' the dream I had at age THREE (while watching Rawhide) --I live on the prairie, did the horse N cattle drive thing, I wake up to mountains all around me each morning, & my 48 miles drive to work (one way) takes me over the Rio Grande River, a stone's throw from the New Mexico border, past Elk, Deer, Antelope, Coyotes and more prairie. My mustang has been replaced by a black business-ey 4 dr sedan & a Jeep CJ 5 for the mountain and messy stuff. I am ERA Werner Realty in Alamosa's-- newest associate broker--passin' the tests in only ONE try---I LOVE photography-- My wonderful photography work can be seen on the ER...Expand for more
A and Realtor.com websites. A hobby of mine always, its the most favorite part of my job--putting a chunk of prairie's best foot forward for the listings. I have a 16 year old daughter at home--who aspires to go to university in London--school for the theater arts. I lost my 13 year old Collie Duke, 2 years ago in February and don't think it's likely I will replace him--some friends you just cannot replace. My neighbor & one of my best friends here in this little scruff of a town owned a real live honest to goodness camel. So I woke up ta see a camel with a backdrop of Mt. Blanca (with peaks that rise to over 14,000 feet) thru the patio doors in my bedroom facing the north. Still into cars, I am restoring a 1954 Nash Metropolitan convertable (their first model year) & a 63 Corvair Monza Coupe. There is also a GT 40 replica in the weeds behind our garage. I don't get back to Indiana much anymore, tho 3 of my girls live there. I can't imagine living anywhere else but 8,000 feet up in this Valley. It's home. I'm 51 facing down the barrel of 52 & that's very ok. I don't feel it--tho I may look it. It's the new 42, you know! I am a real estate agent for ERA working out of Alamosa. I am single once again--Im not even going to try anymore!---living in the little corner of a quiet sleepy tiny mobile home park nestled under 200 year old willow trees. My 16 year old daughter lives here with me doing her Senior year at Alamosa High. From there, who knows. Life if far from over for me and my adventure continues. I'd love to hear from all of you old coots!
