More Life... Spring 2009 Much has happened to me and for me since I last posted here. I am still working in the recruiting business in Owatonna, Minnesota. This is a wonderful town and I have lived here for 23 years. Wow! Hard to believe that its been that long Life August/September 2008 Well here it is more than half way through with 2008 already. It's hard to believe that I am sitting here watching pre-season football already... As for life in the "Land of 10,000 Lakes" it has been a summer filled with days on the lake and days on the links. I brushed up on my golf game this year and can now say that I am pretty decent. Playing with about a 10 handicap is not to shabby for this NJ boy! The kids, wife and I purchased a boat this year so it has been a summer of learning the ins, and outs of getting it from lake to lake. I still don't know much about fishing since I did most of my fishing in the Atlantic Ocean when I was a kid! But it has been fun trying to learn. Cresse, my 14 year old son, is now going into 9th grade and is still really interested in sports, thank goodness... (somewhat of a far cry from when I was a kid) He started football practice this week and is probably going to play either a safety position or linebacker. I keep trying to talk him into playing offense but he wants to play defense. Kelly, my 17 year old daughter is going to be a senior this year. Very hard for me to believe that I am so old that I have a daughter in her last year of high school. Hey, that's what this site is all about isn't it? Kelly has had a summer job this year as a hostess at a local restaurant and really seems to like it, because as she say's "It's really, really, easy dad!" I think that after high school she is going to go to cosmetology school...Expand for more
