About Me

We were married in Las Vegas in 2003. Judi's son, Brandon, is a student at KU. Dan's daughter, Melinda, and her husband, Jens, were married in Lund, Sweden, in 2004, where they currently reside. Dan's son, Billy, lives in Stillwater, Oklahoma. We enjoy music, especially classic rock and blues by Fragmented Minds (Dan is the drummer for Fragmented Minds). We also enjoy travel, photography, hot-air ballooning, gardening, and rock collecting. Dan also likes to sky and scuba dive. Dan is a geologist, as well as an environmental, health, and safety coordinator and is also an adjunct faculty member at Friends University. Judi is a health care professional. We also have a spoiled Lab named Cheyenne. We are not from Kansas, Dan is from Minnesota and Judi is from Colorado.Myspace Backgrounds
