Christmas 2017

As an engineer and scientist I am not a huge believer in luck. Luck is just the occurrance of a highly improbable event. It is with that thought that I am extremely thankful to have spent the last 62+ years being the participant in and recipient of truly a plethora of unlikely events, the vast majority have been good/great improbable events, some way more improbable than others.

I have a beautilful wife, four great daughters, son-in-laws, grandkids, granddogs and cats, inlaws, outlaws and relatives all who put up with me and my sometimes far fetched, arm waving ideas. I have friends that I sometime don’t get to see as often as I would like but they are in my thoughts every day. I live in what is probably one of the best climates in the US with ocean views that apparently people are willing to pay millions to see. I am frequently overwhelmed by memories of people, places and things that bring me peace and happiness.

This Christmas all I wish for all my family and friends is an unbroken string of good, highly improbable events – Merry Christmas – Peace on Earth – Good Will To All.
