~From Stuart~

Bonnie and I work together each day on a common agenda that accomplishes way more than we could separately. This book is a good example of how her ideas and her input have shaped the final pages of this unique and interesting book. Bonnie has had a long and successful career in the health and fitness business. She graduated from the University of Tennessee with a Masters degree in health. She has heard the stories many times and we have created some of our own adventures and including the building of our Desert Star Ranch in Borrego Springs, California.

I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 1964 with a bachelor of arts and a major in Architecture. Then completing a Masters degree in Architecture from Harvard University Graduate School of Design in 1968. I was elected twice to the Encinitas town Council in 1979 in 1980. I am cofounder of the California Surf Museum and the Encinitas Wavecrest Woody Meet and the Encinitas Historical Society.

I have been a registered Architect since 1971 to present and have been the Architect for well over a thousand projects large and small. I have worked in that capacity on many many beautiful Architectural drawings. The core of this book springs from the many great stories starting in my earlier days and a need to document all that before the dust of time causes them to fade away.
