Trey and Lori's Story
Life
Since we are both connected to the same classmates.com ID, this is a shared Bio....... Lori ( Lori Anderson, class of 1980, Lanier ) and Trey ( Trey Armstrong, class of 1978, Lanier ) got married in August 1981 and headed up to North Dakota to start their lives together. Trey had joined the Air Force and his first assignment was at Grand Forks, North Dakota. We thought the winters were cold in Texas, but soon learned that they did not compare to the northern states and the harsh FORTY BELOW ZERO temps (not including wind chill factor). After realizing the cold was too much for these two Texans, Trey put in for a transfer and we ended up with orders to Anchorage Alaska. The winters in Anchorage were milder, but a lot longer, and the 5+ years up there was a great experience that we would not change if we had the chance! Trey finally got out of the military (in 1989) and we moved back to Austin. We spent a year and a half in the "hot and humid" central Texas area and came to the conclusion that we were more acclimated to cooler side of things. We made another move to a place that met our climate needs, moderate throughout the year (however, it can be very wet), to the great northwest. We have been in the Seattle /...Expand for more
Tacoma area for the last eighteen years, no kids, several fantastic pets throughout the years, and have made a lot of friends that we continue to keep in contact with as they move on with their lives in other areas of the world. Trey has continued with a career working on military and commercial aircraft and currently works for the government as an Installation Maintenance Representative and manages a National Maintenance Program for the Army. Lori has continued her career as a Legal Assistant and has been working in this field for over twentyfive years. We both enjoy spending time at home, but have recently purchased a 29 foot travel trailer that gets us out exploring the area up here (Washington, Oregon, Montana, Wyoming, and Utah) and a trip every other year back to Austin. Our first adventure with the rig was a trip back to Austin in the Fall of 2007...loaded up the dog and cat and had a great time. I guess we are exploring the retirement side of things, and getting used to it, before plunging in when the time comes. Next scheduled trip back to Texas is the fall of 2009 and if we can get away from here in August, we hope to attend the Semi-Annual Lanier Happy Hour at Scholz's Beer Garten. Hope to see you there!
