July 2009:
After graduation I attended Central Washington State College, then Centralia college, then ran out of money. Hitchhiked around the US for a short time, ending up in New York, where I worked as frozen food manager of a supermarket. Then came the draft! 1 year, 9 months and 11 days of playing clarinet in the army band and I was back in school.
I eventually received a BA in music from St. Martin's College, where I was also on the faculty for a short time (VERY SHORT!). Teaching music was not to be my career path, as I had hoped. I worked at various occupations, married once and reared two wonderful stepchildren, divorced, went back to school and took at degree in data processing. Since then, well the following list is self-explanatory:
1993 - Russian Far East (Vladivostok, Kharbarovsk, Irkutsk, Listvyanka, Lake Baikal) and China (Harbin, Bejing). Several Trips to Cabo San Lucas (more correctly San Lucas del Cabo)
2006 - New York and Egypt (Cairo, Aswan, Abu Simbel, Edfu, Esne, Luxor/Karnak)
April, 2006 - saw the arrival of first great-grand-daughter Tiffany Rose Ulrich.
I retired from the Department of Corrections July1, 2009.
I have been playing piano for the Johansen School of Ballet (now the Johansen Olympia Dance Center, as it is under new ownership) for 27 years, as of this year.
I still play, on occasion, with various jazz and rock bands, along with the occasional wedding, cocktail party, funeral, bar mitzvah...whatever the traffic will bear.
I have a domestic associate of 25 years who teaches belly dancing out of the dance studio in our home.
Her ladyship retired January 1, 2009 and I followed July 1, 2009. Now the fun begins in earnest!!!!! |
