Life
Much has changed! I've been retired (USAF) for 12 years. I'm married, now, going on 4 years, to Christie (Jorgenson). She's a food scientist and a Texan originally from Longview. We were married October 29th 2011 and Honeymooned in Hawaii. I rode a motorcycle (Yamaha, V-star 650 and Midnight Venture 1300) for five years, from 2005-10. The summer of 2010 was a busy one.

My Kids
We have three beautiful daughters, Rhiannon, 29 (mine), Erica, 23 (hers) and Amanda, 20 (hers) and a granddaughter, Rhindee, 4 (Rhiannon's). For now, we're spread out across the U.S. Christie and I have been in Kalamazoo, Michigan since August 2013 (I wasn't planning on leaving San Antonio!). We're headed to Chicago next. Rhiannon and Rhindee are still in San Antonio, Texas. Rhiannon will start nursing school for her BSN. Erica is in Minneapolis, Minnesota at grad school and Amanda is in college in Witchita, Kansas.
