Hi BJ, Isn't it wonderful that there are at least 3 other gals here from AZ. What a surprise (LOL)that was for me. I, also, have traveled alot, and lived in Saudi Arabia for four years before moving here. Raised our children in N. J. , but I was born and raised in Michigan. Guess you could say I have been around.Originally Posted by copper5251

Yes, what a Surprise. LOL. My daughter worked as a volunteer for the Surprise Fire Department for a while but has had to quit. She is starting her 3rd year in Grad school and that is a no work, just school thing. I love Peoria, the wide streets that are clean and well kept. the nice sidewalks and the fountains. We have everything we need right here or just a hop on the 101. We lived in Washington and it rained all the time and was so cold, even in summer, so the weather here is wonderful. Talk to you soon, B.J.

Donna, Where have I heard the name? Are you a long arm quilter? Or maybe, you belong to the Calico Cut Ups. Hmmm this is going to drive me crazy!! I know I have heard your name before.

Hi Gayle, i just saw your reply to someone and that your daughter was Army and your son Navy. Thank them for me. All of my children served in the military. Three in the Army and one Air Force. Now two of my grandsons are in the Navy, one in Japan (he was one of the last crew on the Kitty Hawk) the other is stationed in San Diego. I am very Gungho military. B.J.
