Jim McCowan and Family
Jim McCowan was born in Utah and raised on a farm. Being the third child of nine, his parents taught him to work hard and to love the outdoors. So during his high school years and after he graduated, he worked in construction.
After serving a mission in New England for the LDS church, he taught English in China, traveled through out Europe and Asia, and ended up in Hawaii, where he studied History and married his sweetheart, Linda, from New Zealand.
After they both graduated with B.A. Degrees, and still having a bit of wander-lust, his wife and he decided to do his postgraduate studies in Australia. He earned Masters and Doctorate Degrees and by that time they also graduated as proud parents of four Aussie children, Ben, Jessie, Sophia and Ruby.. He worked for the Australian Intellectual Properties office and would likely still be working there if it weren't for a call back to his roots.
So after fourteen years, he has come full circle. In 2001 he returned to the Southwest and in 2002 got back into construction. In 2005 he and Linda decided to settle in Kanab where they feel right at home, being close to extended family and the beauty of the Colorado plateau.
