Life Proud husband to Robin for 20 yrs., dad to Tristan (11) and owner of the cutest Beagle you ever did see, Clancy. I am active in our church and spend a lot of time teaching finance classes. I am the Northwest regional coordinator for Willow Creek associations Good Sense program. We have lived in Portland for about 9 years, and are not in fear of rusting, even though there is a fair amount of rain. In our spare time (yeah right), we cruise with Royal Caribbean and tour the country in our 39' class A motorhome. Since we started cruising in 2001, we have been to Canada, Spain, France, Rome, Italy, Croatia, Greece, Turkey, Alaska, Mexico (3x), Costa Rica, Panama and Aruba. Our next trip is in Feb. 2008 aboard the Freedom of the Seas...the biggest cruise ship (to date). We get to Ridgecrest occassionally and try to visit with as many folks as possible. I was disappointed that the school did not have a 30th reunion in 2005 as that would have been my 25th, but hopefully they will have their act together in 2010. I have attended every reunion since 1985 when we were doing them every year for awhile in the old gym. It is nice to see the school growing...even nicer to see grass growing everywhere! School Nothing real noteworthy here...found and keep in contact with Jim Hill. He was principal the first few years the school was open.

It went through a lot of rough spots those first few years, but continues to churn out incredible folks! Ran into Mickey McDowell in Victorville at High Desert Church and we visit with he and Pam as well every time we visit Robin's family. Mickey was youth pastor and interim pastor at IBC for a few years and we used to toilet paper his house every Friday night. The best time was when we were dutifully covering the car in the driveway and looked up to see young Christopher watching us from the front screen door. He was in his footy pajamas, and was not saying a word...just watching us. He even waved goodbye when we took off! I think he was 2 or 3 at the time. We used to TP everyone's house...nobody was sacred. I finally got mine when one Saturday I woke up and mom told me I had a mess to clean up in the front yard. The entire cheerleading squad had stayed at Heather and Erin Martin's ...Expand for more
