rhead crane inspector and technician. Presently I have found a home working for a manufacturing plant(Trane) as an Engineering Specialist. I enjoy what I do again and have rebounded well.I love Colorado and do not miss the humidity. I also had built a drag race car(69 GTO), in the early 90's, and raced for a couple years. I enjoy the outdoors,hiking,biking,riding my Quad,camping etc.I love the mountains and open space. Although,I also love going to the beaches on the coasts(Florida and California). My favorite place which I have visited was Hawaii and I hope to soon get back there. Turks and Caicos in the carribian was beautiful but Hawaii still wins with me. I hope everyone is doing well and look foward to reunited with some of my classmates in the future when I visit NW Indiana.
