David's Story
Life
I went into the USAF after high school to get prepared for life. I have to say that life has been good and I retired at the age of 56. I am married with 2 children and have 4 grandchildren. I live in the Columbia River Gorge in Washington State and I love it here. I restore classic cars as a hobby. If you would like to see pictures of my dogs, scenery and my classics please go here: Put the H t t p stuff in front of it.
