Comments
My wife and I started a Tax Practice while at Travis.
Sold it in 2006 and went on the road with a traveling professional Motorsports
Group, The World of Outlaws Sprint Cars for five years and did the timing and
scoring.
Other than my F-100 years most memorable career moment was
participating in Operation Homecoming as escort/debriefer in 1973.
