It was almost a 2 day trip to New Knoxville from where I lived & I had no car. Couldn't afford a car. Had no camping equipment. A sponsor is someone who gives you money for a project. I would send someone $10 a month while they were in the Corps. It's been so many years that I can't even remember the names of all the people I helped. I have known about Grease Spot for years & years & the site before it which was closed because of a legal agreement between the owners & TWI. This site has changed. It's fine; just different. It doesn't seem to accept attachments though. The Forums are a good place to visit. I decided to revisit to see if it still existed. At least you are not involved with Harry Potter.

What a guy Ted was. I knew him when he was married to Mardel. I never saw a woman play the piano like she did.

This sounds like Gale. I knew your mom.

I never attended a Rock of Ages in all my years of being in TWI. I was a divorced mom who could barely make ends meet. My kids were always more important than a Rock or going WOW or into the Corps. I was BULLIED for that attitude also. The one thing I did do was attend family camp one year. Other than that, I went to local events. I did take the advanced class but had to leave my kids with a Corps grad friend for 2 weeks because I could not trust my abusive 2nd husband. That marriage also ended in divorce. My life is peaceful now & my kids are adults.

The group Breakthrough - A Thought Away - came out in 1985 after Dr Wierwille's death. I have the cassette tape. It's all I have left of my music tapes. I tired to upload the images but it isn't happening. An OLD webpage that might help is http://www.believerlinks.com/cortright/bbmusic.htm. 

No. I mean the banner photo. Maybe that can't be done on here but it can on Facebook.

No matter what I do, I keep getting a message that I'm using the wrong size.

The number 7 supposedly represents spiritual perfection in the bible. Perfect indeed, I am proof that this was a fallacy. It was fun, even though our Corps produced the likes of XX and XX.

I scanned our 7th Corps picture in Gunnison. If anyone wants a copy...just email me.

You will note that me and David Petit are missing from the picture. We had the privilege of being on the clean up crew for that supper meal. You guys left lots of pitchers of cheap beer on your tables.

David & I were enjoying ourselves cleaning up those pitchers of beer. We were in no condition to have our photo taken on some mountain.

So we just said to hell with it and sat there with our pitchers. I don't remember too much after that.

Been here since we graduated in 1979.

(I don't miss the snow...had enough of it in Emporia and HQ.)

PS - I became a window washer when I grew up.

I know Dave Pettit.

What else do you want to know?

Those were my years in The Way. I sponsored many people through The Corps. That's about all I care to say now.
