I met Mary Jo at OSU, and after graduating we've stayed in Corvallis. We're on the edge of town, enough in the country that our daughter could raise sheep for 4H, but close enough that I can bike to work along the river.

After graduation I worked a brief stint with Bonneville Power Administration, and then self employed for 5 years - selling and installing telemetry/control systems in Oregon, Washington and Alaska. I hated the selling part, but loved getting out, meeting new people and seeing the country. Since then I've been with Hewlett Packard - spent a lot of time designing production systems to make all of those ink jet pens. I've had the opportunity to travel a lot to Europe, Japan and Singapore for work - meeting more people and seeing more of the world (without having to sell anything).

Mary Jo and I have 3 children - ages from 24 to 32. We might miss the reunion; helping our daughter and husband move from an Air Force base back East to his next assignment in Ohio.

If we don't see you; best wishes and have a good time.

Art has his fingers in a few things, Still a member of the Brother Speed Motorcycle club (35 years) and now Band Manager for his wife's Blues Band Francine West and the High Speed Wobblers.  They host a jam session at the Trail's End Saloon every Wednesday at 7:30 - a good time for us old farts.   He and Francine have been married about 35 years and have lived in Sherwood a long time. Can't afford to live in the hometown.
