Ric Davis writes: I'm Ric Davis. (Fredrick) I changed a long time ago to Ric. That K was a bother. I live on a ranch where we do not have high speed anything. So when I get to the Bay Area I feast on the broadband. I still have a case of slide photos taken during our senior year, of classmates and the campus. Let me know if any of you are interested.

Robert Triggs - Well, it has been a long time since I have talked about myself. I went from CVHS to Viet Nam, where I spent almost three years. I had some severe injuries, but that is in the past. I spent 10 1/2 years in the Army. It was a very good experince. After the service I lived in California until 1984, when I moved to Lake Havasu City, AZ. Now I live in Pahrump, NV where I am very happy. I am now close to the people that I have helped out with off-road racing for the past 5 years. I did a little off-road racing myself, then helped out with radio communcation for 5 years. Now hopefuly this year I will be behind the wheel of my own car.
