Family:

My wife Felisa graduated in June, 1999 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Spanish Literature from Cal State

San Bernardino. My daughter Loretta is sitting between friends at a Scholastic awards ceremony.

I am a 28 year employee of Honeywell Technical Services, although when I hired on it was Bendix Field Engineering.  Two years of the job were near Madrid, Spain, but the remaining years have all been at the Goldstone Deep Space Communications Complex. 

This is a photo of the 26 meter antenna at the Apollo station tracking the Lunar Prospector Mission as the spacecraft orbits the moon.

Weather conditions can change dramatically in the desert in a short time.  These clouds appeared quickly, then dissipated without dropping any rain.  It was also sunny from the west, which provided the bright contrast of the antennas.

This is Chuck Ripley standing next to my $75 "dune buggy" that I owned while stationed at the 750th Radar Squadron near Boron, California.  I was in the Air Force from 1967-1971.  Chuck worked at the nearby GATR site.   We had a lot of good times traveling around.  We had not been in contact for 20+ years, but he recently found me on the Internet.  He sure helped bring back some memories of the good times.  Thanks, Chuck!
