I (Barbara) am the ancient one of the Lester children.    My husband Frank and I will both be 78 by the end of this year.

    Since we moved away from California, many of you younger ones don't know very much about us.  We have a dozen children.   Marie the oldest was born in 1950 and Joe our youngest in 1965.      I used to tell people "we have a baseball team of 9 boys and 3 subs who are girls.  While they were young, we built a home on 2 acres  and that's where they all grew up.

    We moved a few times after Frank retired and finally ended in Kingman, Arizona.   We live above the city and  can look down at the lights at night.

    We have quail, rabbits and other birds that we feed.     They are fun to watch and once in awhile a big Road Runner comes by to try out our alfalfa pellets.

    We just take it easy now days and enjoy the times when someone can visit.
