Hi Frank: I caught your last post on the school website and thought I'd touch base. - Retired, well let's see, oh, two years ago, but haven't had much time to sit around because of all the projects popping up that were put of for the last thirty years since my last retirement! Recently I found a man actually willing to work who is about as busted up as I am, but together we get some of the heavy projects finished.
Still here in Oak Ridge TN.
Good to hear from you.
Rod Lee

We've been in touch since then a couple of times and Rod shared this:

Where were we?.. Oh yes, I was going to do some catch-up on what I’ve been up to.  Well, since we left Memphis State, I spent twenty years in the Air Force, flying off to Europe/Asia, managing something or other, retiring in 1978 in California and marrying Chris who I met in Sacramento.  We moved to Maryville, TN for ten years then on to Oak Ridge which, time wise, accounts for another thirty years. During that time I flew and managed for several small airlines winding up flying executives in corporate jets around the North and South America. Chris held down the homestead while I was off flying around and still works as an administrator at Oak Ridge Schools.

He concluded with a short story he wrote for ProPilot Magazine last year which sort of tells what he is up to now. You will enjoy reading this, it's really nice. Be sure to see page two.

Thanks, Rod.....maybe we'll hear from someone else.
