To kick things off......

By now, most of you have probably at least looked at the EWB blog site, and now you're wondering.....'what does she want us to send'?  So, here's our contribution to start things off.  You can use it as a 'guide' or not, so let's get started!

We purchased our home (#3187) in EWB in the fall of 2011, coming 'back home' after an absence of 25 years.  This is Bev's hometown, and Cliff is from the 'suburb' of Millerville MN...the home of a liquor store and a big Catholic church!  We raised our three children...Paul, Jennifer and Amy...here before moving to Winona, Red Wing, and Andover MN for Cliff's career.  Those three kids have given us a total of nine grandkids....each has two boys and one girl (very uniform, don't you think?)  Our son lives in Cannon Falls MN, one daughter in Rochester MN and our other daughter lives down in Boca Raton FL.  
Cliff has retired twice (!) but finds he's not too much into that scene...at least not yet...and so has started the local nonprofit called Douglas County Car Care Program. It deals with transportation issues for those in need, either receiving a car donated to the program or repairing what they already have.  Most of the recipients are single moms. When he's not working, you'll find him on a local golf course, or more than likely, the Queen B (locally known as the party barge!).  
Bev long ago retired as a medical secretary and has run the calendar for busy lives ever since.  She is the editor for a Korkowski family blog, and with Cliff's family of 13 kids and the 50 nieces and nephews, we have no shortage of 'news' to share.  Since coming back home, she's also started a lunch group for her 'old' high school friends and manages a Facebook page for them.  This EWB blog is her latest endeavor.  
So, that's the Korkowski's in a nutshell....and we'll see you on the beach!
