40 years ago, 1984, there was an enduring and minimally but meaningfully explored spark in Norman, Oklahoma...

After high school, Loren studied Political Science and English at the University of Oklahoma, and then went to University of Alabama to study Archeology. Loren has been on the road with projects/missions/adventures in Alabama, Georgia, and Florida, Texas, and Oklahoma. It's been an existential challenge saving the world through a dedicated career in Cultural Resource Management, fishing, and fossil hunting...among other feats, even Indiana Jones wouldn't gamble. All the while, his beloved family and friends ever present with Loving Kindness in Dallas and Norman, Georgia, Alabama, and Florida

Aimee stayed mostly put, as much as she could, while attending OU and Vermont College, to nurture a creative life grounded in family and a eventful and grounded career in Art Therapy and Yoga. Her daughter, Captain Evangelinn Rook-Shroyer, is adventuring the many rewards and challenges of Air Force life abroad. Her step-sisters, Sarah and Amanda Rook, remain in Norman with their own beautiful families and careers. Aimee worked in education, non-profits, and university-land with her own existentially beloved and decadent adventures with family and friends, who are also ever present with Loving Kindness and encouragement from coast to coast.

Grounded in our mutual respect for each other and God's Green Earth, we are grateful for every day of our sweet simplicity, lasting magnetic rapport, remarkable ease, playful spirit, courageous honesty, and tender loving-loyalty in our precious lives.

Humbly, we are sincerely grateful to our Loving God, the Beloved Universe, for our Beautiful Families and Sacred Serenity.

May we have the Courage and Wisdom to keep each other safe and Be Loving in all our adventures.
