I have been married 12 years with 4 daughters - 17,11,5 and 3, and I will be 50 in May. The oldest is my step daughter, just in case you were wondering. I have been in the truss industry since 1985, and for the last 6 years was the owner of Truss Technology in Salem OR. Alas, I am another victim of the economy and had to close my doors back in August. The thought of starting over, or going to work for one of my competitors, is NOT an option. I am now a domestic engineer - getting kids ready for school, making lunches, shopping, making dinner, etc. Some say that I am a better cook than mom. I am extremely fortunate to have a supportive wife, with a great job, which allows me the opportunity to focus on IM and WA full time. I am looking forward to the day when I can say "remember when".
