Greg is living on a farm in southern Oregon. He is helping out. His delightful girlfriend, Lydia, is also living with him on the farm. They just moved there two months ago.
Cathy is living in NE Minneapolis and is attending St. Kate's University with a hope to get into their nursing program. She has been helping me with my web site upgrade project by converting my hundreds of conference talk CDs into MP3's.
Daniel is living at Park House (the name I use for 3120 Park) and is working as a security guard at Calhoun Square. He continues to take online classes, currently in Mass Communications. He is still as friendly as ever and connects with his friends frequently. I never know which of his friends will be asleep on the living room couch or one of the extra beds.
Ben lives with Monika and Irena in Manchester, NH with Monika's family. He still works part-time for UPS, which covers his health insurance. He was just accepted into the U of New Hampshire Masters program in computer science. He already has a Masters in English from the U of Dallas but that has not generated a full time teaching or writing job for him so his fascination with web design and the Ubuntu operating system have led him to pursue computers as a career.
Anna and Ken and their five children live near Portland, OR. Ken is working a long-term temp job in accounting. Anna homeschools the kids and is also active in her parish catholic charismatic prayer group.
Luke lives at Park House and because everyone who lives there seems to work security, he does too. He provides security for a computer chip manufacturer in one of the suburbs. He loves reading and watching movies. He thought about becoming a doctor and went to the U of M, graduating in biological sciences, but decided not to pursue that field. He also has two black belts and spent 4 years in the Marines.
Caleb doesn't live anywhere. He works for Ebay but as of January 1, he maintains a legal address in Seattle but travels from there to all points of the globe. Last I heard he was in the Bahamas. But he has been in Korea, India, China, and many other places over the last year for Ebay. He is still employed by Ebay but works via Wi-Fi connections from hotels and offices all around. He hopes to see Africa, South America and other parts of Asia as well. He still loves Pearl Jam and manages to coordinate his travel with their travel. I don't think they use the same travel agent, but who knows?
Anyway, I have wonderful kids and love them all immensely. In their different ways, I am proud of each of them.
