James's Story
Class of '79--I can't make the reunion, so I thought that I should at least give a sketch of life since Lassen High.
After high school I worked for CDF fighting fires in the summers to pay for college and graduated from UC Santa Barbara. I then worked as a smokejumper for the USFS in Missoula, Montana for four years and did lots of traveling (I met my wife in New Zealand; we just celebrated our 21st anniversary) and generally just played and enjoyed myself. At 30, I finally got serious and entered medical school at Dartmouth, graduating in 1994. I did my internship at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital and my residency in radiology at UC Davis.

and training we had 3 children who are now 18, 16, and 12 (boy-girl-boy) and are all really good kids. We were lucky enough to move back to Missoula after residency and have been here 10 years now. We really like it here; it's a great small cultured college town with lots of recreational opportunities and I'm in a very strong group that covers both hospitals in town. Life is busy and good, no complaints.
I moved my parents up here about 4 years ago (they are both 85 and living independently near us), so I don't make it back to Susanville anymore.
Well, that's the synopsis of 30 years. I've yet to make a reunion, maybe #35. Hope that you all have a great time.
