What we do for a living;
Linda's job:
Linda is a Certified Nurse's Assistant. Presently works "on call" at the Oroville hospital, and is going to Butte College to enter the Nursing Program there to become a Licensed Vocational Nurse. She has also worked as a Home Health Aid assisting folks who want to stay at home, but cannot completely care for themselves.
David's Work:
I am presently looking for more work as my postition as the Oroville City Cultural Facilities Curator (managing four museums) has been cut down to 24 hours a week. I am also helping restore and expand a 1925 Pipe Organ at the First United Methodist Church, Oroville. If that isn't enough pipe work, I am helping return a Theater Pipe organ to our local historic State Theatre. In addition, I am a Registered Piano Technician, and still do some piano tuning. My previous twenty-year experience was in Historical Industrial Technology specializing in vehicle restoration, including pre-war automobiles and railroad locomotives. Some of my work can be seen at the
Western Pacific Railroad Museum I have BA in Industrial Arts and hold a Certificate in Industrial Museology (Industrial Museum management) from CSU, Chico.Electronic mail address:
