Turner Lambert:  

After graduation in 61 I took mechanical engr.at Del Mar. In the fall 63 I started a 5yr apprentice program in the Plumbers/Steamfitters. Upon completion I became a teacher/instructor, ALL at and thru DEL MAR TECH. I worked at the trade and taught apprentices until 77. At this period the ENERGY CRISSIS was hard on our buisness, so,I packed up my family and headed OVERSEAS, Iran-77-79 working for FLUOR CORP. Covered up 1100ac.with two OIL REFINERIES,GREECE 79-81,FLUOR built offshore oil/gas production platforms subsea flo-lines-onshore small refinery all of the single men came home with WIVES---TWO parties during the week AAAANNDD ALL WEEKEND,Indonesia 81-83 FLUOR.expanded a existing refinery they built in 74.The jungle of JAVA was a bust on my marriage .The wife rolled back across the PACIFIC like a TUMBLE WEED. The international community ran out of FUNDING,so I came back to CC got a divorce from my first wife and her kids. Next adventure was the NORTH SLOPE of Alaska 84-88. In 84 I found by pure accident the LOVE of my LIFE she is a GEM----PEARL----we are still together to this day and HAPPY. Back to AK.,I worked for VECO ,we did construction/services for the CONSORTUM-ARCO-BP, EXXON, CONOCO-etc..I helped open the FIRST tree under ANWAR in 87. Funding got tight so I went to Ca. THE EPA was forcing the refiners to comply. VECO moved into LA ,and we went to making MONEY...DID NOT LAST, BILL ALLEN'S politics in Ca. were not STRONG. BY the way PEARL was in Ca.with me.
