Ok, After graduating from Penn and getting a Masters in Landscape Architecture/Planning from UMass at Amherst in 1977 my wife Sally and I bought a used pickup and drove to Juneau, Alaska. We have been in Juneau and Anchorage ever since. It has been a wonderful place to adventure, work, raise two kids and now retire. I have served as the commissioner of the Alaska Department of Fish and Game for the last eight years. Who the hell would have thought some preppie from St Pauls would be in charge of "huntin and fishin" in Alaska? Lots of controversy -- wolves eating moose, commercial salmon fishing being put out of business by salmon farms, subsistence hunting and fishing fights and lots of habitat battles. Never a dull moment.

Now I'm retired and doing contract work, but mostly crosscountry skiing, biking, hunting, fishing, hiking and having a great time. There is a chance I will make the reunion. My daughter Kate graduates from Dartmouth this June (she is a classics major and loves latin !!!!!!! Mr Tracy would laugh after helping me squeak through latin only because he needed a right wing on the socccer team). My son Jonathan, who was capt of the socccer team at the high school team here in Juneau, is now a freshman at UBC in Vancouver. Well, that's about it. Any of you who are in Juneau should look us up. We're in the phone book.
