He is now retired from the work-a-day world but does a certain amount of consulting, writing, and research. He lives seven miles outside of the small town of La Grande, Oregon, with his wife, one cat, and a German Shepard dog named Katy who firmly believes that staring into his face at nine-o-clock in the evening is a statement that popcorn should be made, and Rez, a mixed something dog that was found as an 8-week old puppy by Katy under some brush in the desert. Two daughters live and work elsewhere.
