The Olympics were a mania for mother and I. Through the 1950s and 60s my mother and I were professional golfers of a sort, as well as participating in international archery and equestrian events. In 1972 she won Gold in Olympic Archery and I won Silver. We participated in seven Olympics together. I treated it like a hobby, collecting medals in fencing, archery, gymnastics, cycling, volleyball, diving, swimming, equestrian, canoeing, and shooting both rifle and pistol. We participated in Winter Olympics and I won a Bronze medal in skiing but she was the one who loved the cold and collected a couple dozen medals. | The Olympics were a mania for mother and I.

We went camping a lot. I didn't know it then but we traveled in shadow. She taught me field craft. I had been a girl scout. She taught me to climb. I've always enjoyed the outdoor lifestyle and often find myself wandering the woods when I need to think out a problem or get over a man. | We went camping a lot.
