Please make yourself at home. I'm glad you stopped by and hope you enjoy my site. I regularly update it and it will evolve as I learn how to make it more user-friendly. Some of my pages use frames, and if your browser doesn't like frames, there is a navigation window toward the bottom of this page that will take you to most of them frames-free.

     I hope you'll have time to click on my personal links to see how I unwind, and to see photos of our whole clan (including my grandchildren) plus our trips to Scotland and Ireland, and my genealogy links. I have added photos of me with three of my internet friends that I met for the first time in Scotland and Ireland in 1998. You can even see me in a kilt! There's also a page you can visit if you want to know more - click about me .

     I've also added a site for my 40th high school reunion, complete with classmate photos, autographs, photos of events at the reunion and other surprises.

      There's a photo of me with Scott Carpenter, one of the original seven astronauts. I first met him when I was on active duty in the US Air Force and I had the privilege of working with all seven of the Mercury astronauts.

     If your computer has sound and your midi player is on,you'll get to hear different music on every page - even the Rice Owls page. If not, there are still a lot of good things to see.

     Any comments or suggestions you have will be welcomed, so feel free to click "email" and send me a note or, better yet, sign my guestbook at the bottom of this page to let me know you were here. Please enjoy your visit.
