C. to visit the Smithsonian of American History, then to New York and the Statue of Liberty, then to Alaska (Anchorage, Kodiak and Craig, Prince of Wales Island). My youngest daughter lives in Georgia so I’ve had the opportunity to visit her there in Atlanta. With her and her family, we visited The Grand Ole Opera.

Sharon Petersen (Shay), lives on Northbridge Way, Boise, ID 83706-5937 Email: scshay01@msn.com I was married and had five children, two boys, three girls, 12 grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren. I got a divorce and went to work and to school. I think I finished at least one class in every college in the Santa Clara County plus Santa Cruz U. My division moved out of the Santa Clara Valley to escape the smog. Working in Washington state in a white building with a blue roof was a joy. The landscaper planted peach trees in the parking lot; they bloomed three times a year. I can’t tell you how many photographs I have of pink blossoms against a blue roof. Most of my children live in Boise so I retired here where I can watch my grandchildren grow. They are fun! I’m trying to learn more about PC’s, write letters to the paper off and on and sometimes a little poetry. We keep busy. Sharon adds: I changed the spelling of my last name when I got my birth certificate for a security clearance and saw the way it's spelled. My aunt said that first cousins in Racine spell it four different ways. (Jan 2003)
