I was born in Austin,Tx, but grew up and until 4 yrs ago lived in Salinas, Ca. You know, just 18 miles from Monterey. Now living in Pueblo, Co. Salinas is home. It's where I left my heart. My sisters and friends are there. I remember every street and every store and in memories and dreams, I am there. In my dreams, I walk the rooms of the house where I raised my children. When I am asked if I know of particular store, such as Safeway, in Pueblo, my mind's eye sees Safeway in Salinas. Pueblo is beautiful, but it has no ocean air. I am trying, maybe someday, Pueblo will be home.
