When grants ran out, she went traveling for a short summer with a carnival based out of Billings, MT.

Then for further fulfillment she opened a daycare for 6 years. Alas things slowed down she was diagnosed with cancer. Karen adored the nicknames she was given by her family. Momma being foremost, but also Cindershnella, Ice Pick Carrie (Campfire stories about carnival life), and a unique license plate to6y4mykr. She enjoyed vacations that we pinched pennies for.
