I grew up in NM with a agriculture & dude ranch background, began college at NMSU, moved with parents to Colorado and went to Adams State College. Married, 3 children, had farm/ranch business, divorced and back to school to finish education. I got 2 MA degrees and currently a nearly retired professional. Have done lots of traveling around the world, moved back to NM for a job, then opportunity pulled us to Arizona, a wonderful part of the S Western States, and here we will retire!
