So many things have happened since my first posting that I need to update it. I did serve 20 years in the Marines and spent most of my time in Quality Assurance, Aircraft inspection and several other things. One thing I liked about my time in the service was meeting the different people from all over the world, and the time I spent in Japan, Okinawa and other places in Asia. While on Okinawa, I would backpack the Island on the weekends to meet the people, and I took a gazillion pictures which I have somewhere around here. Loved the culture and the people, After the Marine Corps, I finished college and took life easy for a short time while trying to figure out what I wanted to do. Tried several positions which I didn't like and a position opened at a local school district in their technology department and I took it. I've spent the past 20 years with the school district and ready to retire at the end of this year. I was planning on retiring about 5 years ago, but things changed and I didnt. What I plan on doing when I retire, is travel and visit more of the United States with my wife in our motor home, and visit our grand kids both local and in Kauai. My daughter in Kauai has been after us to retire on the island by them, not sure I'm ready for that isolation. Love being able to go and do what we want and not being restricted by anything. Life has been good to me in that I'm in good health and have a wonderful wife. We both love the beach, travel and our grand kids. I still run when ever I can or we just go for walks. Starting to get more involved with geocaching and hope to do more of that when we start travelin...Expand for more
