I have been told that work is my hobby, but actually, I love to spend time at ho me with my husband and family, and look for any excuse to have the entire family present. However, I enjoy travel also, especially if it involves a cruise to an ywhere. I am an avid bowler, and bowled as a sub on the Valley Regional Bowling League. I am an active member of the USBC. I have enjoyed active participation i n both state and national tournaments. I enjoy participating on committees, and happily attend the annual Awards banquets and end of season shindigs. I will rea d everything I can get my hands on: love stories, mysteries, drama, etc. I enjoy logic puzzles, and have caught the Sudoku craze; anything that makes me think! I love animals, and presently my husband and I are staff to two cats and two dog s. I am just beginning to enjoy gardening, especially in pots.
