2023

After 30-plus years of roaming with the Foreign Service, we have settled into a sort of mild coma in Arlington. We were posted to embassies mostly in Africa and Asia, with my final embassy assignment in Bangkok. My wife, Brinda, is still working but I am happily retired. Both children are nearby: Nick is an engineer at Northrop Grumman, and his sister, Alice, is with Hyatt Corp but looking for a new direction (send ideas if you have them, Alice has degrees in psychology and French). We also have a condo on a nice beach in Mauritius, where I dote on my mother-in-law — a wise investment in family relations. I very much enjoyed seeing everyone at the 50th reunion, and look forward to future opportunities to catch up.
