The music for this page I feel is appropriate, as my oldest son likes to make like "Spiderman" on the weekend, climbing rocks in southern California. When he's not working at his job in a printing shop, you'll find Richard Jr. on the rocks at Joshua Tree National Monument or Suicide Rock near Iddlewild, Ca. Richard Jr. is heavily involved with the Boy Scouts of America, teaching young climbers the ropes for their climbing merit badge. Richard Jr. hopes to do some "big wall" climbing at Yosemite this summer on "El Cap" or "Half Dome".

Richard Jr was born 2 1/2 months premature in March of 1976. My Bicentennial baby was also a miracle baby. On the day he was born, his doctor suggested to me that I needed to consider making funeral arrangements, as he was TOO premature to live. Well, here it is, twenty-two years later and he's still going STRONG!
