prodigy.net member.
In the last 10+ years, I have been traveling both nationally and overseas for my current job. (As a Naval Propulsion and Misc Piping Systems Expert.)
It has the nice bonus of giving me some time to explore different cultures and areas that I may not have gone otherwise..
High School:
I started at Chaparrel High School in '78, when living on the corner of Powell and Mountain Vista.
Middle of my Sophmore year,
My Parents decided to move across town to a new house with a pool on Pine Brook Circle.
So from Jan 1979, I went to Ed W Clarke High School until I graduated in 1981.
Both were great schools. And I meet a lots of good people in both of them.
I was given the option of commuting to Chaparrel., in order to stay in NJROTC. But I did not want to have had to commute every day. Especailly after the bus rides to Joe Mackey 6th Grade Center. (You all do remember that?) Although, there were sometimes that I wish I had done it.
