Daddy was a Rural Mail Carrier and mama stayed home to cope with our frequent, wild adventures.
We children, presented a constant challenge. We werent exactly bad just very creativeand we didnt have TV to divert our attention. As a result, we came up with lots of fun things to occupy our time. For instance, we went wading in a lime rock sink hole one summer and caught ourselves a baby alligator which we hauled home in a washtub full of water. We thought hed make a cute pet! But, can you believe that our daddy didnt agree? His reaction was something like, Where theres a baby gatortheres a mama gator!
We were just country kids, in an environment where we were allowed to stretch our imaginations although we did have certain rules. We were not rich in material things and mostly had to make do with what we had but we were a pretty ingenuous bunch of kids.
Come and travel back in time, to the days of my sojourn as a very precocious inquisitive child. Experience the poignant nostalgia of the sad and happy times our family lived on Chesnut Hill!

She earned a degree in Art Education from Florida State University and certification in Exceptional Education. She taught many years at Kate M. Smith Elementary School in Chipley and retired in 2003.
Art and writing have always been special interests. She taught scores of children the art of creative writing. She has written copy for a local radio station; reported for an Alabama newspaper; has numerous short stories and poems; wrote a cake decorating manual; was published in the Best Poems and Poets of 2003; wrote and directed a children’s operetta, “It’s for the Birds!” in 2001.
She and her husband have one son and recently celebrated forty-eight years of marriage. She laughingly says, “I’m the only person I know who grew; got married; moved across the street and still lives there, forty-eight years later. I’ve traveled other places...but never had any desire to live anywhere else.”
