Welcome
Enter our humble abode, the Spoolman Household, located in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota. Our life began here in South Dakota in 1982. It has been a wonderful experience and here is where we decided to stay upon retirement from the Air Force.
Rick and I live with our cats (Casey and Cedric) and dogs (Katie and Cassie), and our friendly neighbor cat, Mittens, who comes and goes as he pleases, “hoping” to play with the boys.
We work at the Douglas School District in Box Elder, SD. I have been there for 24 years. I work in the Tech Department. Rick has been working at Douglas for 13 years after he served 24 years in the military. He works for the Maintenance Department. It is our home away from home.
We have two kids, Corey and Kerry. We have three primary grandsons and several adopted grandchildren. (Joe, Rob, Koen, Charlie, Dillon, Taryn)
My hobbies are collecting Blue Willow dishes, roasting coffee, and working on my Mac, iPad, iPhone, etc. I’ve said it many times before — I love bleeding edge technology! Rick enjoys doing things outdoors, putting together models, and riding his bike on the Mickelson Trail.
We have much to be grateful for! I thank God every day for the wonderful life he has given me. This year my goal is to read through the Bible in 2012. (My third attempt and I will complete it.) Now that I’ve publicly told the world, it will happen! I am reading it on my iPad or iPhone, with a plan in place, and a place to journal throughout my journey.
I wish all of you a wonderful year in 2012! It is going to be a great year in the Spoolman family!
