Beth's Story

Life Hi My name now is Beth Guthmiller. I married in 2002 and moved to Idaho where I am currently living. I have a 15 year old son Ben who lives with me, my husband Randy and our 2 dogs Ralf and Lucy. I am medically retired after being a pharmacist for almost 25 years. I have had many medical problems for the past 5-6 years including lupus, RA and a spinal tumor (birth defect which was detected 20 or so years ago) After a few Back surgeries I am still in constant pain and ubable to work. However, I still enjoy my life and do as much as I can to live it fully. Randy is from here and all of his family lives here. We bought his parents house when we first moved here and had it gutted and remodeled. Ben loves Kellogg and has participated in football and wrestling at his high school. He will be a sophomore in the fall. He is a good student and could be a great student if he applied himself- that's a teenager for you. We have a ski area in town and he has learned to snow board. I have a recumbent bicycle and have been cycling the 70 mile trail that was built from the edge of Montana to the border of Washington state. Randy and I have cycled several portions of it so far since it officially opened two summers ago. I have flower gardens and a small vegetable garden in our yard. Randy built raised gardens to help me in the weeding. Ben attends camp in Ohio every summer for 8 weeks and hopes to continue as a counselor there after this summer. My parents are both still living together :) in upstate New York and I try to visit them at least once or twice a year. Both are in good health. My father has osteoporosis and had a triple bi-pass a couple of years ago but they are still able to fend for themselves. We went to Maine together for a few days this summer. It felt good to be back near the ocean. For those who don't kno...Expand for more
w I lived in Maine for the first 5 years after college practicing pharmacy at several locations. Then in 1980 I moved to Ohio where I lived until my move to Idaho in 2002. My last job was for Medco - a mail service pharmacy in Columbus, OH. I had worked there from 1989-1999 when I had my last back surgery. It was a great job with great benefits which allowed me to be a single Mom for a period of time and retire early when I had health problems. Now I am a stay at home Mom for my son and 2 dogs. Randy works for the city-there are only about 600 people who live in our city- as one of there 3 employees. He is a general maintenance person and works with the sewer department also. We met in Ohio in 2000. At that time he was driving a semi truck but after we moved here quit to be able to stay home. We have our own piece of heaven in the mountains of the Panhandle of Idaho in the Silver Valley. Before 1980 there were several silver mines in the area. But the EPA entered in the 80's and the mines have pretty much closed. It is fast becoming a ski resort/ summer retreat. There are plans to build a new golf course, an indoor water play area, and expand the biking opportunities in the area for summer activities. The quiet valley is quiet no more!! The city girl has retreated to the country and I love it. We are only about 45 minutes from Couer d'lene, an hour from Spokane and 5 hours from Seattle. On the Montana side we are only 2 hours from Missoula and about an hour from St Regis. The mountains are beautiful and there are lakes and rivers for fishing, floating, kayaking, etc.. Needless to say I am where I want to be for awhile. We would like to travel some day in an RV and see the rest of the country. (Our plan after Randy's retirement.) Would love to hear from anyone who remembers me from my many travels. Take care Beth
