Spent 20 years in the US Army. First 9 years as a Microwave Radio Repairman. The last 11 Years as a Recruiter. Served in Germany, Belgium and Viet Nam.

Took up gold prospecting and spent 10 summers in the Nome, Alaska area prospecting and having fun. Have a little gold from a lot of the western states during travels to them.

Still haven't found that really large gold nugget yet. Largest I was involved in finding was 1.75 ounces, but not mine. Largest I have is 7.3 grams.(about 1/4 ounce) Now would like to go north to Deadhorse Ak and spend a couple of weeks sleeping all day and watching the northern lights all night.

Yes

Depends on the day I guess, but basically I probably feel my age

What is your favorite food?

Looking at my waist, all , but to narrow it to one, probably spaghetti, or steak, or catfish, or Tex-Mex,or beans and cornbread, or blueberry pie. etc, etc, and etc.

Any words of wisdom?
