I graduated from the Bordentown Military Institute on June 9, 1953 which is the same day the tornado hit Worcester, MA. I joined the Air Force the same year and spent 4 years between Biloxi, MS and Presque Isle, ME. Out for a couple of years when I made the mistake of getting married, but something good must have happened as I have 4 grown children and 11 grandkids and 2 great grandkids.Wife and I split almost 20 years ago as of 2008. I retired when I was 64 with no money, but found a part time job at the Okemo Ski area in Ludlow, VT driving a bus and as a part time dispatcher. My part time job runs about 40 hours in a 4 day stretch and I love it. Year 19 was up end of March 2009.

Back in the 60's, my brother in law was into CB radio and I got interested but did not like it that much with all the junk on the air, so around 1990 I took my novice test and the rest has been a wonderful time (when bands are open). Iam active with the NEWN, Green Mt. Net, RACES, CERT, ARES and a local ham radio club.

Wish on of my many family members would take up the hobby, but so far nothing from any of them.

My favorite hobby other than radio is GOLF.
