Location: Taos, New Mexico

Spouse or companion: Rosamond Coberly Colonius (Grinnell '86)

Children and pets: Anni (12), Joe (6), Roz (3), 2 dogs, a cat and some coyotes down valley

Jobs: Director, Rocky Mountain Youth Corps

Hobbies: Recently started a water polo club when the city built a new pool. Always spend time skiing, biking, kayaking, surfing, mountaineering... can't read more than 2 pages in a book after the sun's gone down without falling asleep and drooling on myself... I have a great time playing with my kids and their friends, but I could do without the trampoline.

Brush with greatness: Once paddled out in surf next to Laird Hamilton. And then saw him at dinner later. I think he's stalking me. Might engage Emily Wallace Jackson to file a restraining order.

Interesting places I've been: Have mapped out where to get the best tacos from Albuquerque to Durango - have phone numbers written on my visor for calling ahead...

Words of wisdom: It's amazing how much I don't know.

Other info: Been sharing T-Day with John Heyneman, Vince Burke and David Wright and their families/girlfriends over the years. Amazing how we seem to eat more pie and drink less beer as the years go by... must have something to do with the fact that Heyneman is 260 and wears a back brace to support a hernia.
