This is Lobo, a Starland resident. I'm regularly employed and sometimes I work over 80 hours in a two week period. I get up at 4:00 AM five to six times a week to drive 40 miles to go to work. Though I dont get a great deal of time to myself, being at STARLAND makes it all worth it. It is beautiful up here!

I / We have big plans for Starland. We all seek to make Starland a great destination for visitors.

May grace, art, and consciousness bless you.
