David's Story
College
College was alot of hard work; had 3 jobs and went to school full time. Loved U. of Colorado & Boulder as my dad had a ranch there. Dropped out and was drafted, & returned after Vietnam on GI Bill. Dropped out again, and finally returned to complete BA & MA in clinical psychology. Think I got a lot more out of school once I was more mature.

Imported Carpets from Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, and Morocco, for several years. Then worked as a drilling fluids engineer in Sudan, India, Egypt, Pakistan, and the Gulf Emirates. Had an Avocado and citrus farm in Kona Hawaii, and finally worked as a Disabled Vetera...Expand for more
