   Biography - The Later California Years

At the urging of Valorie Morrison, I bought a place in Ben Lomond, California, in 1989. The 'Town That Time Forgot'. A comfortable 3x2 California ranch home in the woods. It's got a fireplace and the nicest gardens and patios in the San Lorenzo Valley. Just upgraded with new furnace, A/C, kitchen, septic, and garage!
My friend, Susan Wolfe-1998 and 1967. She works for Hiser/SERCO Corporation in Australia. She's the hardest working, smartest, most thoughtful CEO human factors engineer and person. She just works too damn hard...

I always returned to New Jersey for vacations until 1996. Here's Bert and Laura. He's my best high school buddy. She's Italian but that's OK. 1994. Old photos from my life with Bert Brondi.

Wedding Day - Richard and Diane Stading

Richard and Diane Stading (my best friends) on their Wedding Day, 16 March, 1991.. I was 'Best Man.' They're a fiesty, wonderful couple. How Diane tolerates Richard I'll never know! They are happily growing grapes in Placerville, CA.

Daryl Leonard. My best next door neighbor. Sincere as the day is long. And always willing to pop a cork. 1998. See the rest of his family at my 50th Birthday party.

 Daryl Leonard - One Great Neighbor!
Bootsie!!!

This is Bootsie. The nicest, coolest, sweetest cat in the world. She is just soooo cute!!!! She was my neighbor's, the Nesses, kitter. They complain about sardine breath. So I had to feed her ham patties! 1996.

Bootsie is chasing the big catnip ball in the sky now. She passed over on Christmas, 2001.

John and Moe Forbes - Vegetarians but still nice

My good friends Maureen and John Forbes. Now living in Boulder, Colorado. And Pete Mancuso! They are such a great couple. Former vegetarians even! 1997

Suzy Dykhuizen.Very good email friend who works at Kaiser Permanente.

My best buddies in Ben Lomond - Janet and Brent King. Brent's got a bigger and badder Harley now.

Bartster Buddy!

The Barster, aka, Bartman!. My best best buddy now living and drinking Mickie's in Denver, Colorado. 2000.

My Honner Bunner!

Julie, aka 'Honner Bunner', and I reunited our friendship in January, 2002, after not seeing one another for 30 years. We married in September 2008. Here are some photos.

We both attended URI and dated a couple of times but neither remembers the details. We agreed that's probably better. We found each other through the URI Alumni Newsletter. We both agree on one thing - it wouldn't have worked 30 years ago but we get along absolutely great now! She's alot smarter than I am. And sings better, too! When she sings the 'Mariner's Song' it brings tears to my eyes.
