Married for 33 years to Dawn. Three grown children. All were born while we were living in Melbourne, Australia. One grandchild (I’ll show you pictures). Currently enjoying a “third act” career as a flight attendant with a major US airline. I play bass guitar (sometimes competently) in a old man garage band.
