CELESTE VIVES (HOLDEN) |
After I left SUNY Potsdam I married and moved to Syracuse and had a daughter,
Laura, and a son, Don, two special additions to my life, for sure. Laura lives
in Vermont and is married to an Englishman, John Lomas, who makes furniture (www.cotswoldfurniture.com)
and has a shop in Stowe, and Don is the athletic director of a local high
school. They each have 2 children so I'm a happy grammy with the most edible
kidlets known to man. They are truly blessings.
Unfortunately I divorced, moved back to
Maryland, where I'm originally from, and went to work for T. Rowe Price, a
mutual fund company where I stayed for about 20 years before moving to Vermont
to run my own bed and breakfast. I figured being a mother and wife I'd been
doing B&B work anyway so now I'd get paid for it. I kept the Canterbury House in
Woodstock for almost 8 years, sold it and once again moved back to Maryland and
back to the same job I'd had since 1974.
I am now working as an innkeeper in
Skaneateles, one of the Finger Lakes of Central NY, about one-half hour from
Syracuse. The house is called Hobbit Hollow Farm B&B, and is truly a lovely
place overlooking Skaneateles Lake. Not a bad gig. So you can see that the money
my folks spent sending me to college was completely wasted. Oh well.
I was married briefly to Al Pacino
(secretly) and then became a stripper in Atlantic City at the Trump Casino where
I was the hit of the place. Oh wait, that was the dream I had last night. Oh
well, I guess that's it for me. Hope to see all of you again and sooner than
later.
