Plans after CVCS: work in Clark Summit

I have been a widow for 32 years have raised two children. I taught swimming and music until I retired from education 2 years ago when I opened this (Sun Shine Shed) shop. I was a church organist from age 12 until 2 years ago- Good Lord I guess that makes 45 years. In summer I was water safety supervisor for the New York State Parks system and also Aquatic Director at IBM Country Club.I taught at BU-Chenango Forks-Johnson City. Also a swim official in Broome County for 26 years. Moved from Bingo town 7 yrs ago and taught part time at Mary Baldwin college and in the summer at Winter Green Resort and Forks Lake Swim and Tennis Club and had a part time business on the side. Two years ago I bagged everything else and found this 200+ year old building in historic down town F-burg (Fredericksburg, VA) and have been here just about 7 days a week since. Jan & Feb are the quiet times here so if I can that's when I get away.
