NOTE: WE ARE SADDENED TO REPORT THAT GLENN PASSED AWAY NOV. 30, 2020. OBIT
This is an update as of January 30,2011.
Georgia and I sold our home in Texarkana, Tx in April 2010 and put everything in storage and we are now traveling full time throughout America. I had a seasonal job with Scotts Miracle Gro for a couple of years. I was a merchandise counselor working in Home Depot and
Lowes.
In August we traveled 7,000 miles in our fifth wheel including South Dakota and Upper Michigan, Kentucky and Indiana.We just took a 10 day cruise through the Southern Caribbean over the Christmas holidays on the Celebrity Equinox. It was very enjoyable.This marks our 10th cruise.Enjoyed attending the Outback Bowl in Tampa Florida this year where my Florida Gators beat Penn State. That was the highlight of my year.
Since then we have been trying to stay warm in Florida and Southern Mississippi and now back in Texarkana. We are spending time with our Grandchildren for awhile and watching them play their sports. They are both girls ages 13 and 9. We will soon be leaving for Dallas,
the coast of Texas and after that....who knows....we are just having fun and enjoying life and doing what we have always wanted to do
EARLIER POST:
After closing Carlson Brick and Utility and Carlson
Lighting in 1991 retired and moved to Jacksonville,
Florida where we lived until 2000. We then followed
our daughter, son in law, and grandchild to San Diego.
We lived there until June 2004 and again have moved to be with them in the Dallas area and we now have 2
grandchildren girls, ages 6 and 3. We are now at our
last destination...no more moving. We also have
another daughter who lives and teaches high school in
Mesa.
We have traveled in our motor home throughout the

wonderful loving family and good friends for which we
thank God daily. Thanks for your interest.
