What an interesting year. I have seen and talked to many of you gone through a divorce (good thing), moved, done a lot of traveling, and found out that it is a good thing to be able to laugh and enjoy life again. NOT happy, I do recommend finding yourself through whatever means available and believe me I am not an overly religious person. To the RBWT (you know who you are) and the rest of you relax, enjoy, and appreciate.

I've been with my partner, John, for more than 12 years. I started my own marketing consulting business more than 4 years ago, and have really enjoyed being out on my own after working as an office drone for many years. I love to travel and have been to Europe many times, including several trips to Italy. which is by far my favorite country. I'm in touch with a few people from our class, but would enjoy hearing from anyone else who's interested in corresponding.

Each day I watch the play of nature from my office window but still live near enough to Boston for all of its art and culture. I work as a Construction Manager for building luxury homes but my real work is land conservation and other related environmental issues. I have to say this California native finds he is, at heart, a Yankee. Through Cyber space I have become connected to a few old friends from my formative years to remind me of the good times I had and that I (hopefully) have grown past the mistakes I have made. Contentment may a far better goal than enlightenment as you ease into it with age rather that pursue it with the passions of youth. Drop a line if you feel so inclined.

Miss the old haunts. The restaurant of the corner of Pico and Lincoln was my favorite place to go for Pastrami Sandwiches. Is it still there? I've traveled a lot, retired from one career and am in the middle of my next. I'd love to visit the old crew from Samo in Santa Monica or welcome them here to my home in Florida.
Please keep me informed as to what is going on with the folks. Remember when the cannon was stolen from the quad? I didn't do it but was there when it happened. The Rent-A-Cops put up a great chase. It was back the next day, but it was an awesome way to start the day.
P.S. Do you ever hear anything from Deborah Gaye MacDonald? She was class of '70 also. We went to Grad Night as a date...tracked her down in the late '70s. But haven't heard a word since.
Please check your alumni rolls.

After sauntering through most of my life in SoCal, I finally figured out that the best place to live is the place you love most. I moved to Yosemite Valley in 2002 and became one of several managers at the Yosemite Lodge. Simplicity has its merits: I spend most of my free time hiking and backpacking in the Sierra Nevada, bicycling on the scores of bike trails and roads throughout the valley floor, and I can’t wait for the cross-country skiing trails to open up this winter from the Badger Pass Ski Area to Glacier Point and Ostrander Lake.
The attached picture is me in the summer of 2001 at PacBell Park in San Francisco. What an incredible venue that is by the bay. I was sitting in the middle of a sea of orange and black (which included by brother Richard and sisters Leslie & Laura, all Samohi grads), but the outcome of the game was in my favor: Dodgers 14 / Giants 8. And by the way, we do indeed have running water, electricity, and even satellite TV in Yosemite . . . . . I couldn't survive without ESPN's SportsCenter.
I’m single now, but my daughter, Renée, is a senior at UC Riverside and will most likely attend UC Santa Cruz in 2003 to obtain her masters in English Literature. Drop me a line, particularly if you’re going to be visiting Yosemite National Park for a vacation or backcountry experience. I know the trails in the Central Sierra like the back of my hand. Well, that’s my updated info.

My hobbies include Ham Radio, the Santa Monica Drum Corps and Halloween with the Great Pumpkin (sic) Production Company. Playing drums has been a lifelong passion and I have indulged in that for the last 25 years. Each year is consumed with many activities associated with these groups. The Santa Monica Drum Corps is going strong with many group activities over the next several months, including incorporating previous members of the College in our current activities. So, if you are a former band member, drummer or not, let us know and we'll get together. It'll be a BLAST!

Big changes for me and my wife Susan (Epps, Samohi '74) After 52-1/2 years of living on the Westside, within 5 miles of the family home in Santa Monica, circumstances dictated that we move to Orange County. So move we did on Aug. 20, 2004, to a house in the Northwood section of Irvine. I have been working on the sports desk at the Orange County Register since 1997 and more than 7 years of driving from Culver City to Santa Ana every day had taken its toll. The move has been great and to those who hype O.C., we are believers. My commute went from 45 miles to 5 miles, from 90 minutes (or more) to 15 minutes (or less). Susan and I have a 12-year-old daughter, Alexandra, who is in 7th grade.

After earning an MBA I worked for the U.S. Congress as an analyst and participated in the Watergate investigations. After holding a similar position in the California Legislature and a tour as director of the Little Hoover Commission, I went to the private sector. In 1989, I opened up my own public relations firm in Marina del Rey where we provide services to corporations and nonprofit organizations. Interfacing with state and local government is still a big part of my business and life. My wife (who is also my partner in business) and I have been together for 12 years and have raised three daughters the eldest of which just got married; the middle one is engaged and our youngest is a junior at UC Berkeley. Running our own business and raising a family doesn't allow much free time for sports or activities, but we love to travel whenever we have a chance and have been to France, England, Spain, Italy, Israel, Switzerland, and Denmark in recent years. I still love tennis,! but play it with my new son-in-law. It's been an exciting and fulfilling journey and can't wait for the new chapter each day brings.

I'm still working for a nonprofit in Boston, MA, doing drug prevention work -- been there 18 years. Our work has changed a bit over the years, with less work with teachers and students in schools, and more with community coalitions working to change conditions in their neighborhoods. It's something new every day, which is why I'm still there. I still get to work on curriculum writing once in awhile, most recently a project to train youth in Ontario, Canada, to work in tobacco prevention. In November, 2004, I finally got married to my partner of over 20 years, Denise. Good ol' liberal Massachusetts passed a law allowing gay marriage, so we decided to take advantage of it. We had a relatively small (65 guests) ceremony and had a ball! It snowed that morning, which was a surprise, but it turned out a plus, since our outdoor photos were beautiful (though a bit chilly!). I would still love to hear from any former members of the MSS Spray!

In the '70s I graduated from UC Berkeley with a BA in Computer Science, got married, and worked in the family business. In the '80s I had two kids, a boy and a girl. In the '90s I realized a lifelong dream and went back to school to study music composition, became single, and sent my son off to college. In the first 4 years of this decade, I sent my daughter off to college, and received my MA in music composition on the same weekend that my son got his MS in Mechanical Engineering. It has been an interesting life, with plenty of ups and downs. I wonder what the future will bring...

Been back East for 25 years now, have two girls (both 12) and still with my temporary job out of college after 30 years. Weight less now than when I graduated but have shrunk a little also. Best to all

Hi, I can't believe it's been 30 years. Looking forward to the 30 year reunion next month. Pulled out the old scrapbook last night. My most lasting memory of Samohi was the Pumpkin we built in my backyard for the Viking Chorale homecoming project. I live with my husband of 21 years, John, and our two daughters, Janelle 17 & Jennifer 15. We moved to Arizona 13 years ago and built a house on the foothills of the Superstition Mountains. We're about 60 east of Phoenix. Looking forward to the reunion.

Still in SoCal, still playing (and teaching) guitar, and still near the water (only now, I'm up in the mountains at Lake Arrowhead). I'd love to hear from you.

Greetings from Clemson, SC, home of the Tigers. Up until 2000 I was only responsible for one aircraft.. Now I am responsible for an entire airport. Last year I decided to stop traveling so much and settled down. So if your are ever in South Carolina, home of Shaggin and beach music drop by and we will go flying through the Appalachian Mountains.

Running for student body president and losing to Paul DeMarco (by 60 votes) was a Life Changing Event :^>. Best regards to the surviving members of the Class of '70.

Went to work as a captain for the Offshore Oil Rigs in Southern Calif., for 12 years with a 500 Ton Masters, Captains License. Currently selling Real Estate in Thousand Oaks with Century 21 Westlake, but still hold captains license current. Plan on leaving in the year 2002 on a 48 foot sailboat, and travel round to different places. Still surfing. Two kids. My son just got out of the Coast Guard after 7 years. He also was a Boatswain' s Mate second class like I was. Search and Rescue. Would love to hear from past classmates after all these years. Folks still live in Malibu, and still own the Malibu Riviera Motel, having been in business now for 50 years. Time sure don't stand still does it.
