I really don’t have many more competition shots as one can see, but below are 2 shots of me at the last competition of my career in Oceanside, 1978.
The first shot was taken of me during my routine and the second shot is of me greeting the judges after my routine… It looks like I was saying goodbye!! I believe I came in 5th or 6th, I truly can’t remember and there are no statistics to be found regarding that particular competition.
Later that year I took off for Europe, then the rest is history as my life “rolls” on…
