Always loved the outdoors and wanted to do something in fisheries management. But would have been hard to make a living at it. I am a civil engineer by degree and education. Worked 2 summers surveying for C B & Q Railroad and 2 summers for Santa Fe Railroad during college. National Guard basic training and AIT in Fort Polk, LA, then first full-time job as a bridge designer for Santa Fe Railroad in Chicago, got married shortly after moving to Chicago. (Same) Wife and I have a son and a daughter and two very young grandkids.Always worked in the System Structures Department with various titles, so I got moved around a little-Chicago, Galveston, Albuquerque and Kansas City Area. Then Santa Fe merged with Burlington Northern to form the BNSF, happily took an early retirement offer a few years ago. And now we live on a lake and are very happy.![]()

Minnow Inspector. I see how many will not catch a fish.

There are two things to aim for in life: First, to get what you want; and after that, to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieves the second. Author unknown, but I like it!
