Holly’s brother, Clint, was the only one in their family to be born in New Mexico and not Texas.

We met at Hastings in Albuquerque, NM where we both worked.

In 1950, near Capitan, a bear cub was found trapped in a tree during a forest fire. He was named after the Forest service's mascot, Smokey the Bear, and lived out his days at the National Zoo in Washington, DC.

We were married in Santa Fe on March 17; this was also our friend KK’s birthday. KK was married in Santa Fe on November 25. This happens to be Cheese’s birthday.
