<description>Updated 29-Sep-2008. Moved to Colorado 11/97. With 14 years at Sun Microsystems behind me, I have been working on my photography business. I have covered nascar, NHL, MLB, shot a lot of portraits, weddings, and just about anything someone will pay for. I have been to many places, seen many things and I have met some amazing people along the way. I have been a pilot since 1991 and love it. Hoping the real estate market stays strong in CA and enjoy being a land baron. I ski, look for something good in everyone, play golf and travel. I have been working at the Children's Hospital in Denver as well, and it is such a rewarding experience. The miracles that come out of that place are incredible! I had a great time at the 30th reunion. Everyone looked great, and it was fun to catch up with so many people from so long ago! &quot;I'm just tryin to get by, being quiet and shy in a World full of pushin' and shovin'&quot; J.

<description>Updated 20-Aug-2008. Hi, Hello and Bonjour! Anyone else at CAL in the early 80's? My Anthropolgy/Archeology studies didn't get me out nearly enough to know if any of my Awalt classmates were there!!!!!!!!!Though my time in Paris and it's 1980's nightlife nearly made a mummy out of me;-) I'm in the sunny south of France, having moved here 4 years ago. Happy, healthy (if you don't count the red wine and cigarettes that accompany this French lifestyle!) I was in San Francisco for 15 years, where I had an interior design business, but the call of the French was too strong and I had to get going.......What a great choice! I am so blessed to have formed another life, on the other side of the planet, that includes friends from all over the world and frequent visits from family and long time American friends. I've spent time renovating some properties in Provence and now have a few seasonal rentals in the heart of the historic district of Aix en Provence and in the Vaucluse. I had an experience different than Peter Maille's(sp?), but that's a long story......... I feel so lucky to be in a country where the visuals are so inspiring, the food and produce so good that I have had the opportunity to hone my design and cooking skills (and my knives also!)and gain 20 pounds all at the same time. Can't come to the reunion in Sept. but is anyone up for a get together in January in San Francisco?</description>
