Home Sweet Home

I live in the semi arid desert region of West Texas called the Permian Basin. A road trip through our part of the country offers amazing views of the sky – bright golden sunrises and watercolor sunsets so immense that they take your breath away. The land is incredibly flat and sprinkled with mesquite trees, cactus and the occasional wild flower. Breaking the monotony of the landscape, oil wells, pump jacks and wind turbines accent the horizon. Cattle ranches spread far and wide sharing the natural resources that West Texas offers. The birthplace of a U. S. President and the home of "Friday Night Lights," Odessa offers a beauty all it's own. It is a good place to build a life.

MY RETIREMENT BUDDY

 
 
 
 
Meet Rusty-Boy. He is my retirement gift to myself. For thirty years, I have passed the ladies walking their dogs in their sweats while I drive to work in my professional attire. For thirty years, I have been envious. Rusty and I will take doggie classes. We will learn to walk on a leash. When school begins in the fall, we will be out walking in our sweats.
