Welcome!
							Welcome to my little corner of the web!  Richard and I are now living in the beautiful Willamette Valley of Oregon.  We returned to the states from Germany in late 2002 and have been quite busy with new adventures.  We celebrated our ten year anniversary this year.  Wow, time has sure gone by fast! I currently work for MESA (Math, Engineering and Science Achievement).  We provide informal science education oppoprtunities for kids who are from backgrounds typically underrepresented in STEM career fields.  I really enjoy working with kids and developing science curriculum..  Richard is in the midst of his first year as a full-time college student. He is taking classes at a local community college. He will eventually transfer to the Oregon Institue of Technology in their Renewable Energy Systems (engineering) program.  We currently have three fur-kids.  Tigger who is now 14,  Shine who is our newest addition, a 5yo Belgian Malinois, and Ember, the cat.
			Richard, Tamara Tigger This is an old picture and I would like to say that we haven't really changed much...  I'll post some more recent pictures the next time I get a chance!
