Brianna Figueroa
Brianna is our first child. She's 26, pretty dang smart, and now she's off to seek her fortune.
She grew up here in Cheyenne. Spent four years in Laramie earning a BFA at University of Wyoming.
Did I also mention she spent a semester in London, England? For some reason, Wanderlust took her
to Pennsylvania. After experiencing the 'Hood in Pittsburgh for two-and-a-half years, She and Josh
have relocated to the capitol of Texas. She's currently completing her Masters degree.
Would you believe me if I toldja a story, like this?
One that has her rollin' into a brand new town Back East
with $15 in her pocket, a hole in her flip-flops, and nothin' else but
a spring in her step and a sparkle in her eye? Well, wouldja??
Nahhh, I didn't think so.
Aw, you should never ruin a good story with the truth.
Well, the part about the spring and the sparkle, that's true.
From the time she was a little kid, Brianna tended toward Absolute Perfectionism.
She once nearly frost-nipped her fingers and toes shoveling snow for me, so I wouldn't have to.
Good thing she didn't lose her toes. She needed them for Point.
Well. If they thought it got hot in Pittsburgh, they'll have a new
appreciation for "hot" now that they're on Texas' Colorado River...
Here's a link to an old writing
from more than fifteen years ago, about her pluck and
tolerance, post-holing up a snow-laden New Mexico volcano
with Yours Truly. She was only eleven years old at the time.
