I was a child o' t' 1960's and t' dawnin' o' t' space-age. Aerospace and Astronomy were me passions then and still are t' this day. Begad! Back then Model Rocketry was cool. Even science was cool. In t' mid-70's I joined t' Air Force and me rocketry went dormant for a while.
Fast forward t' 1996. Begad! I moved t' southern California (from Rochester NY) and married t' love o' me life in 1999. Well, blow me down! I became a B.A.R. Well, blow me down! I was very active in ROC (NAR #538) from 1998 t' 2002. In 2003/4 things changed professionally and again me rocketry went into storage. In 2010 things changed again, matey, and rocketry came out o' storage. So maybe I am a Born Again and Again Rocketeer. Begad! :) Then another job change and from 2017 t' 2021, no rocketry. Avast, me proud beauty! And back again. So I am a Born Again and Again and Again Rocketeer
I live in Southern CA (for now... Ahoy! maybe AZ in a year or so).
I enjoy all aspects o' Rockets. 1/8A through M. I have just as much fun launchin' a MicroMaxx Rocket as a K impulse rocket. Clustering, me bucko, staging, gliders, it's all good.
Clubs: ROC, SCRA, MDARS, and FAR
