We have been in the Bay Area since '88 and continue to love it. Tim works for a general contracting firm, Rudolph & Sletten and I work for the County of San Mateo in the East Palo Alto welfare office. We have 2 boys ages 5 (Alex) and 8 months (Max). We li e in San Jose and would be interested in hearing from anyone else in the South Bay, maybe with kids also. We don't need to buy or sell a car but are thinking about getting a dog/friend for our 2 yr old female golden retriever. We're looking for a small to medium one that likes kids and other animals. Any suggestions? Love the webpage!

Appears we are not alone. I'm working again after retiring with 32 years at Northern Natural Gas/Enron. I see ISU has already had a winning season by beating Iowa THERE! Check Niagra--it may be running uphill! We live in Brentwood (not OJ's, East Cont a Costa County. Kinda bucolic here. Trivia: I saw Kruschev @ ISU and also saw ISU football team beat Oklahoma and Nebraska (dirty thirty days). Thanks to Bryan Stephenson for setting up the website. My home was Des Moines--any other Desmoiniacs out t ere?

Hi everyone, I'm a 1992 graduate living in Oakland. I met some of you at the Sharks hockey game last year, and really enjoyed the event. I'm also looking forward to the baseball game this August. On a different note, I'm currently looking for a new car er somewhere in the Bay Area. I was downsized recently and would like to get back into the workforce. I'm looking for something different (I was in manufacturing) and would enjoy a new challange. Go Clones!!

In doing my stories I've come to realize just how high ISU rank in the world as an ag research and teaching facility. Big sports fan. Subscriber to Cyclone Illustrated.

Are there are any Cyclones who would prefer a get together in the Livermore-Pleasanton-San Ramon area? I work at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and reside in Tracy, so events in the south bay or peninsula aren't of much interest to me. Livermore has some great wineries that serve lunch, and downtown Pleasanton has an eclectic collection of great restaurants. Who's interested?

Hello fellow ISU alums! Let's get this thing rolling! Someone has to sign the guestbook first, and since I set it up, I guess I'll do it. I've been working at HP in Cupertino since 1988 doing networking software for HP's Unix operating system. I play bass guitar in a rock band and enjoy hiking, biking, and canoeing in my spare time. If anyone happens to be selling a 4x4 sport utility vehicle from around 1993 - 1996 anytime this year, I'd like to hear from you. My Jeep has 210,000 miles on it, so I'm looking to get something else.
