I had a long and interesting discussion with my former roommate, Brett Lunger, who resides with his wife of 20 years, Caroline. Brett is the recent grandfather of a boy and girl, and after a successful career in professional auto racing, both as a driver and an owner on the Formula One circuit in the US and Europe, is now focusing his activities on private investments and bicycle racing in a master’s road racing circuit. Brett says there is a lot in common between Formula One racing and bicycle road racing, with its emphasis on positioning and drafting. While the end of May is a busy season on the master’s road racing circuit, Brett still hopes to make an appearance at our 35th.
Bob Mackin writes that he just had his first book published: Standards of Mind and Heart: Creating the Good High School with coauthor Peggy Silva, and published by Teachers College Press.
In the “tough work” department, Jim Kremer reports that he took trips to Mauritius and Bali this year for research. The Bali project caught the eye and camera of David Suzuki, who will feature his project on an upcoming TV series. For a preview, you can look at www.sacredbalance.com/baliextra.html.
For John Huyler, “Life has never been better!” DeAnne and John have an 11-year-old girl, and John has entered a second childhood through taking up snowboarding near his home in Boulder, Colo. John reports that boarders our age are known as “Grays on Trays.” John continues to thrive in his work as a mediator in public policy disputes. John writes that, unfortunately, he will miss the 35th, as he has been invited to Korea, where the second week in June has been declared “Henry G. Appenzeller Week” after his maternal great-grandfather. John promises to see us at the 40th.
