I'm a Secretary that has lived all my life in the same old town. I know everyone and everyone knows me, and that's just the way I like it. I love to cook (of course), waterski, snowski, snowmobile, hike, cave, rock climb etc. I guess I am pretty active. I also love to travel. I'm single, never married, no kids. I grew up in a really large family, there were 10 of us kids and so I have tons of nieces and nephews to spoil. I think my favorite cookbook is now Zaar!
