I was born in Colorado but raised in Arkansas. I like visiting big cities and vacations to other places, but it''s the country life I call home. If any of you get the chance to visit Aruba the happy little island, please do, it''s amazing and beautiful with very friendly and helpful people. I have been so blessed with many family, friends, and relatives who have inspired me to write this book, and especially my youngest sister who was in a bad car accident in her twenties and suffered serious back injury but it has never stopped her from raising her family or spoiling her grandchildren a single day. God rescued me as a very young child and stuck with me through all my skids off the road. I have always said he doesn''t leave us, we leave him; and when we go back, he''s right there waiting. I have lived the best days of my life to the fullest and been blessed with so many memories to see me through the time I have left on this earth. Laugh, live, and love while you are young and healthy so you can live off the memories when your older and can''t go the way you want to.
