> 1st, we've moved. We bought a great little house in Woodland Hills
> and have embarked on a complete remodel. The neighborhood is
> fantastic, and the house has great (though rather small) bones, but
> the inside was sad. All of the doors and just about every piece of
> trim in the house had to be replaced, the beautiful hardwood floors
> were hiding under 50 years of scratches and stains, the bathrooms
> are in need of some serious work, and the kitchen has been gutted to
> make way for a new layout & new furnishings. The address is:
>
> 5320 Tendilla Avenue
> Woodland Hills, CA 91364
> (818) 883-7055
>
> BTW, David, our house is actually right on your way home from work
> (congrats!).
>
> Our goal is to get all the work completed in time to have some sort
> of a housewarming/open house in August.

> 2nd, Connor will be starting Kindergarten in the fall, which scares
> us a little. Ian will also start at a new preschool (the one that
> they were going to is MUCH too far) that is very close to home.
>
> 3rd, I've gone as far as I can go at CSUN and will be starting at UC
> Santa Barbara in the fall. I received a VERY nice interdisciplinary
> fellowship that's funded by the NSF to study multimedia within the
> scope of the Cognition & Perception PhD program. So, I'll be
> spending the next 5 years commuting even farther than David. I'm
> also going to continue to teach at Moorpark College.

> For those of you that know my family, Rob is back from Iraq and has
> submitted the paperwork to retire from the Corp. This last combat
> situation just put him over the edge. Some of the pictures that he
> and his fellow Marines have shot are really disturbing. He did,
> however, make it back in time for my little brother's wedding --
> something we thought was not going to happen. My parents are very
> happy living in their RV at Lake O'Neal in Camp Pendelton. Dad is
> working part time as a Ranger, which keeps him busy enough to stay
> sane and pays enough to cover the space rental.
>
> Damon's company just seems to do better and better each year. One of
> their largest customers these days is a company that owns several
> brands of alchohol, including Cuervo & Baily's. He's managed a few
> great perks from that relationship.
>
> Anyway, sorry to be so long-winded. Just thought I'd share.
