I married Susan Coffman in 1994, one of the best years of my life.  I was traveling throughout North America for the British Consulate General, eating out a lot, and working on my HO scale railroad.  Susan had two children, Karen and Christopher, from a previous marriage.  After we married, we  moved to Chicago, where Susan accepted a top position in a property management corporation. 

The pictures below show me and my family.  There I am taking my own picture in the car, like a dork.   This was actually one of the first pictures I ever took with the digital camera.   Notice the snow and ice on the windows outside- it was a cold Saturday in November, 1997.   Next to me is my wife Susan, who also loves to play the piano and keyboard.   We have a four-hands piece, Cannon In D, that we can play together.   Karen is shown sitting in front of the Christmas tree, and Chris has been caught just before school in this outdoor winter shot.  Next is Michael, who was no more than two when this picture was taken.  The one with all the red hair would be our two year old golden retriever, Maggie "Mae" Trainer.
