In 1997 Tony & I moved out west to Prescott, AZ's mile high city & built our home in the mountains. This is cowboy country & we enjoy off-roading in the forest & watching horse racing. There are 5 lakes around the area (MN ponds) & the Grand Canyon is 2 hrs from us. We enjoy having company & showing this beautiful part of our great USA. We're involved in Young Life & a Christian outreach high school program.

When we're back in MN to see our sons, Tony & 3 children and Tim & 2 girls, we try to get up to the BWCA. Our daughter Doreen & son are in Phoenix, AZ so we get to see them often. Daughter Deonne & husband Mitch & 3 children are in Denver, CO.

Since 2005 when our daughter Danell, husband Mike with their two girls moved to Trujillo, Peru to do mission work with Project New Hope, Tony & I have spent 6 to 8 weeks each year in Trujillo trying to help in any way we can. Poverty is so prevalent in third world countries and we are so thankful for God's blessings in the mission.

About 16 years age we started cruising & found it a good way to see a lot of the Caribbean, East & West Europe, New Zealand, Australia, South & Central America, Hawaii & Alaska. In June of 2001 we were blessed to spend 2 weeks going all over Israel. We flew to Norway & Switzerland to see my relatives & we've been to Italy 4 times visiting Tony's.

This June Tony & I celebrated our 48th Wedding Anniversary & this fall plan to take a cruise up the eastern US & Canada coast to celebrate.
