Bring us up to date on your life after the peace corps:

Married while in Peace Corps; travelled with husband during his job with
an engineering company maintaining and operating the ground tracking
stations NASA used during the preparations and manned space flights to
the moon. Joined the Lay Mission Helpers of Los Angeles for a 3 yr. stint
teaching at a boys' trade school in Micronesia; bought a chichen farm in
North Carolina where we still live. I work as a farm advocate for fair
farm contracts and my husband raises some livestock, shears sheep all
over NC, and does maintenance jobs for the elderly.

Any thoughts you have now looking back on peace corps days?:

A wonderful, life-changing experience.
