Miriam Grafer's Profile
About Miriam Grafer
I am a retired RN. I have been retired for 5 years. My husband and I have 7 children, 5 boys and 2 girls. We also have 7 grandchildren, #8 is in the process of being made and will be due in August.We have spent most of our lives on Long Island, New York. I was born in Germany and came here in 1953 when I was 4 1/2 years old. Our entire marriage we lived on Long Island. We bought a boat about 6 years ago and spent 2 1/2 years working on it. It is big enough to live on and we have been doing that for the last 2 1/2 years. We travel on the eastern seacoast, in the south in the winter and we go back home to New York in the summer. Last year we did what is called the "Great Loop Trip". Up the Hudson, through the Erie Canal to Lake Ontario and then to Canada - Trent Severn Waterway, Georgian Bay and North Channel - to Lake Michigan to Chicago, down the river system to the Gulf of Mexico and around Florida. Today we are in Vero Beach, Florida.
While on our boat I started making crocheted with wire jewelry and started a business run from the boat. I have been crocheting for about 30 years, but never with wire and beads. I found not only did I love it but I had so many necklaces that I needed to live to be 500 to wear them all, so now I sell them.
In my younger days I spent 7 years as a firefighter and rescue worker on Long Island. I raced cars (Enduro races) and scuba dive.
