Wallace's Story
Life
How the hell did I end up in the Sonoran Desert of California? Well, so much for creating an interesting tag line....
Briefly, after I graduated from WHS, I headed south to Pomona (40 mi. east of LA) to begin my college career. I had a great time - while majoring in Urban/Regional Planning, I played some intramural sports, continued swimming until they pulled the plug on the program after '78, and made a lot of new friends.
After I left Cal Poly, I stayed in Pomona w/my brother Les until Sept. of '83. In an attempt to escape the grip of Reaganomics, I moved to Tampa, Florida to work for a small City called Oldsmar (founded by the Olds family of Oldsmobile fame). Real shotgun politics there. After about 6 months, I went to work for a hydrology consultant in Tampa - a fun job! Got to do well monitoring, stream gaging - lots of field work, but also got to edit tech reports and work with ea...Expand for more
rly database formats.
Anyway, the beaches and weather were great, but I was ready to come back and try to get something more permanent back in So. Cal. (still very difficult as I do and ever shall hate the Rams, Dodgers and Lakers!!)
So I returned to CA (Mtn. View) in Jan. '85 to live w/Les, who at the time was with HP there. I worked at SFO airport on graveyard for peanuts - just to survive and keep putting out resumes - for about 10 months before finally getting my current job in Nov. '85. And here I've been since then.
Not very exciting, is it? Well you get into your 40's and...well most of you probably know that song by now.
I invite anyone who remembers me to drop me a line. I got on this thing because I called WHS and they had no 25-yr reunion info. According to this site, one isn't planned.
Too bad --- I was looking forward to one.
Love & luck to all you fellow Wildcats out there!
