Retired land surveyor.

Hobbies usually involve mechanical-related things. Once held 5 world altitude records for "high power" rockets, up to over 28,000 ft. Also designed, built, and launched a "steam" rocket, aka "hot water rocket", to 4660 ft.

Also went over 182 mph at Bonneville Salt Flats in a 1971 "boat tail" Buick Riviera - using a Buick 455 engine.

Now working on a "personal hovercraft" powered by lawn leaf blowers. Eventually hope to propel it by a steam rocket.
