    I retired in Aug 2003 and have lived in Alpine 19 years. I enjoy traveling, gardening, scrapbooking, quilting, knitting, crocheting and all types of arts and crafts. I have 1 1/2 acres which I maintain myself, except the lawn which I have a gardner mow. I have 1 dog and 2 cats and manage to keep busy every minute of every day doing something.
