"Go West Young Man." I did and never looked back! University of Colorado-Boulder. Southern California for just enough time to get married. Moved together to WA State in 1989 and have lived in the Woodinville / Snohomish area ever since. Widowed and my poor son got stuck with me. 24 years later he still likes vacationing and snow skiing with Dad so I guess he made out just fine. Am lucky to be spending my life now with Molly. We retired to the town of Snohomish. It's a small riverside town from the 1800's just outside of Seattle and an hour from some great snow skiing and hiking. Spent most of my career in technology sales for data and telephony transport equipment. Been retired since the fall of 2013. Life has been good! Looking forward to seeing everyone.
