I am married to a nice lady (Jan) and after bailing out of New England in 1994, am presently working on our farm (Sweetbriar
Farm) in central Missouri. We raise primarily Alpine and Sable Dairy goats, with cows, sheep, chickens and dogs (Tucker the
boxer and Duffy the smooth collie mix), and cats thrown in for good measure. I've worked for thirty two years in the quality
assurance and nondestructive testing field, with twenty three of those years in the nuclear industry. I enjoy sailing, old
boats, putzing with old cars and motorcycles, ship models, airplanes, and a bunch of other things as well. I have recently
sold the Zenith 701 airplane kit that I had been building and my 1954 Penn Yan runabout and a 1972 Triumph Bonneville motorcycle
projects are up to speed and ready to go.

Received my pilots license in June of 2003, but haven't used it much. I finally finished my BST/BS in Mechanical and
Welding Technology from Excelsior College on June 15, 2007. I retired from the Missouri Department of Transportation on June
1, 2007 and have been working in St Louis as a structural steel inspector for the last year and a half. With the economic
slowdown though, I may be spending more time on projects around the farm.
