Sadly, I lost my wife Carol after 62 years of marriage. I recently re-married Barbara Field making me a “newlywed”, a different experience for me now.   I live with Barbara in a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) in Medford, Oregon. People my age often have health challenges, and I’m no exception. We hope to plan some limited travel in the months and years ahead when we’re able to do so.   I have fond recollections of Osco Drug with people working in collaborative fa

I have been retired since July of 2020.  Cindi retired in 2022.  Being empty nesters with no grandkids we have taken several trips overseas and one trip to Alaska over the past three years.. many of these trips have been pilgrimages.  While we have enjoyed every one of our trips, our pilgrimage to the Holy Land and our trip to Switzerland rise to the top of the list.  We already have three more trips on the books for 2026!   We still live in Algonquin Illinois.  When not trav

I must say that the Bays are doing quite well being healthy, happy and enjoying the sunshine in Scottsdale Arizona.  We live here year around and do not mind the warmer days in the summer months.  We do travel, usually in the summer months to see this wonderful world.  The gift is in meeting the people of this world in their environments and and gaining such insights into history.  Every day we learn so much about history, people and cultures of which we were so unaware.

Greetings, All, from the Alaskan Tundra, aka Valparaiso, IN where wind chills are -30 and air temps are single digits.  And, then there is the snow. ❄️❄️ Since 2022, I have been enjoying life in the Midwest thanks to COVID upending business models.  Yes.  Even ultra-conservative CVS broke down  and allows fully remote work and is currently hybrid for those close to the main office.  Fortunately, my VP at the time granted me permission to go full remote.    The move itself was

It was a partly cloudy day with temperatures at 65+ degrees on the patio of the general store in Scottsdale where 11 unique individuals gathered for brunch and recollecting conversations. We had the likes of Stan Petersen, who was later joined by his wife Deone probably to make sure he was behaving himself.  Frank Stock, Bill Harbecke and Jerry Osterman were in attendance and yes, Jerry is still manufacturing and selling his candy. Dave Schoenbeck indicated that Ellen is stil
