This is my HOME PAGE     Almost everything in my Web site is a recollection of things done in the past. At the age of 73, I am not very concerned about what I may do in the future, but hopefully, these reminisces  will be amusing and educational to those who take time to view them. I hope especially my descendants will find them interesting. Maybe these are my memoirs. They are largely stories about my childhood, and ramble on into experiences as an adult. I am happy to include what I know about my grandfather, Daniel William Hauck, and memories of my parents, Louis and Florence Hauck, and our farm where I grew up.
       The Air Force played a big roll in my life, and a lot is remembered about my time in the military, both on and off duty. Certainly, attending college affected my life dramatically, and a career in industry and operating my own tree service has generated lots of stories. Currently, my only hobby appears to be collecting antique knitting machines, but I never tire of building some new device even if it is not needed or totally novel.
