About Me

Hello, After living in the hustle and bustle of the big city life for 35 years (Phoenix and Las vegas), I moved up to northern Wisconsin, and opened an Antique Shop. It probably add 10 years to my life. I feel like I go into hibernation during the winter, thats probably why! It is so peaceful, but I do live on an ever populating Highway, which is good for the business. I am getting adjusted, but I still don't like the extreme cold (20-40 below). I moved up here because I wanted to get my daughter in a little better atmosphere, I think that a child will pick up their own bad habits soon enough without any outside interferance, or peer pressure. She is now 18 and I think that I made the right move, she is an honor student and graduating from high school this month and I am very pleased!!!
