1. Jobs: first paid job - picking potatoes - 50 lb sack earned $0.25. Detassled, picked up stones, picked up sticks, hoed beans (sometimes needed an axe to get the velvetleaf!). Truck stop cook & waitress through high school. Now a Manager of IT for a credit union
2. Grew up in small town southern Ontario on a farm (can you tell from the first jobs LOL!). Went to a one-room school for my first 2 years. Those schools consolidated into a larger community school - I was in Grade 3 in its first year ... our kids went to this school too - my middlest graduated Gr 8 when this school was closed and consolidated into a bigger school.
3. Married my high-school sweetheart - celebrated 30 years this year. Have 3 wonderful kids.
4. Love travelling and exploring the backroads of the Americas on our motorcycles. Have been to the east coast twice, west coast, Florida keys and many many states and all provinces! Especially love Colorado! North Carolina! Tennessee! Wyoming! British Columbia! PEI! so many favourite roads

5. Working on changing my body type - discovered that I can drag myself out of bed and to the gym for a workout before I'm even really awake.
