About Me

I am a collector of vintage flamingos. Love to travel, especially to Mexico, all parts! I live and work in a national park in NM, love the outdoors and all that happens there.

Favorite Music

I like pretty much all music, but, I was raised on country. I listen to a lot of cumbia and hispanic music, just love the beat!

Favorite Movies

My most recent fave is "Across the Universe" Great movie, if you like the Beatles music it is a must see!

Favorite Books

I have been reading a lot of leadership books lately and am bored to death with that topic, so, now I read for fun. Historic novels and true stories about the southwest are what I am reading now. I would love any kind of true story about Mexico!

Favorite Television

I live in a canyon in the middle of nowhere and only get two channels. Lucky for me one of them has Grey's Anatomy and Survivor!

Favorite Crafts

I really love doing things with my hands, wood work, watercolors, jewelry, sewing and designing costumes and pretty much anything artsy. I am kinda getting into stamping, southwest or flamingo stamps and ink pads.

misc.

Did I mention I love to travel? I am really in to learning about other cultures, so when I go somewhere I like to stay for two or more weeks so I can get the feel of the people. Mexico and South America.

Biggies

Love: Dark coffee, but,I don't drink tea or hot chocolate. I love dark chocolate and white chocolate, midnight milky way is my fave! Sugarfree fruit or bubble gum Gummy bears( the cheapo ones from walmart), and the chocolate covered ones.

things I would like to recieve

I love scented oils for my burner, beads with large holes for my hair, small tins and boxes (ie. things you can put things in!) vintage anything...
