I enjoy dog sitting, bowling & spending time with my granddaughter.

I'm well known for taking in dogs to sit for friends & family so our fur babies don't have to be kenneled.

I've bowled on a league for 33 yrs.  I enjoy the people & getting out of the house for recreation.

My granddaughter is the apple of my eye.  We do many things together.  The goal is to visit every zoo in the US.
