Favorite School Memory	The friendships I made - some with people I wouldn't have expected. Riding to town with Troy in the '67 Mustang. Cruising the loop in Teresa B.'s car, or riding the black Yamaha moped all over town & country. (God I miss that scooter & I think Daniel ended up using it for parts :) Reading when it was 'quiet' in the Library (not!). Singing! Time with Mrs. Banks. Swing Choir - Oh the early mornings of practice. Theater - "Anything Goes" and tap dancing! The smell of popcorn while walking around at the football games. Pep Band & Jazz Band. Running - even if it never was quite fast enough ~ there's a cleansing when you push so hard you puke your guts out! Combination locks & getting the next set of books for class. Taking notes & writing. Drinks from the water fountain. Sneakers on the gym floor. Cheerleading. 3:18pm. Hanging out in the band room, listening to Doug O., Kris K., Tom S., and Wendi B.

About Me	I attended U.S.D. in Vermillion, S.D. for 5 years. I worked at the State Hospital in Yankton, S.D. for 1 year. I have been living in Sioux Falls, S.D. since 1991 where I've been working at DakotAbilities. I've been a Manager & Supervisor in the past. I really enjoy my current position as a Program Coordinator ~ providing medical & other support services for people with Cerebral Palsy & special needs who are medically fragile. I love where I work! The bike trails are beautiful here, and lots of cool activities going on all the time. The city is growing & I enjoy living on the south end of town & hanging out at Bracco's or Spezia's on the patio. I have been able to spend time with my folks & brothers and their families often. I have been able to travel to Phoenix & Nashville to visit family & friends. I have enjoyed snorkeling in some beautiful tropical places, including: Oahu, Hawaii, Cozumel, Jamaica, U.S. Virgin Islands, & Grand Cayman. I continue to love music and singing, and my iPod goes with me whever I travel. Since 2006, I've been dating my best friend, Britt Pastian, who lives "West River". He and his folks have a Pheasant Hunting business in the fall. I enjoy working along with Britt every weekend farming and ranching, cow-calf pairs & calving season, herding cattle on the Honda, fixing fence, discing fields & raking hay in the JD tractor, riding together in the pick-up going down gravel roads with the windows rolled down and the music turned up. Time playing outside with the n...(read more)
