WHERE I COME FROM
I am a Colorado native born on the Western slope to a U.S. Forest Ranger where we lived in many cities following my father's career taking us also to Alaska and Wyoming. Seven days after my graduation from high school I was in the U.S. Army where I remained in uniform for 11 years.
