What did you want to do or think you were going to do when you finished high school?

Either a Pro Bowler or a Civil Engineer in Bridge Construction. Somewhere between the Physics and Math I got bored with it and went into the Navy in aviation electronics.

What are some other jobs you have had in the past?

US Navy; Forklift Operator; Materials Manager

What do you like to do in your spare time?

I used to really enjoy bowling, but after breaking the thumb years ago... that ended.

The thing I like to do most is spend time at home when we get there. We work out of town during the week; so when we get home of Friday we enjoy having friends over for dinner, wine and Wei bowling.

And let's not forget a day trip to the Oregon Coast to ease the conscious.

Where is the farthest you have been from home?

Turkey or Eastern Russia, not sure which 1 wins.

Where is your favorite place to go?

Germany - Munich and Garmish

Why?

I have much family in Germany and we try to make a trip every 2 years to visit. I enjoy taking my children so that they may have the opportunity to form relationships with their cousins.

Garmish is beautiful and I strongly recommend that venue to all. I took my present wife there first in 1998 and between the mountains and castles it was a very romantic trip.
