Hi!   I'm Gary Bush.   I now live in Columbus, Ohio ... home of the Blue Jackets and the Crew.   I'm now retired. I was a Senior Project Manager in custom software development.   I develop web pages for non-profit groups I belong to.   My personal pages are just for fun.

My wife, Linda, and I live in the southeastern part of the metro area, in the small village of Canal Winchester. I'm originally from Cincinnati. Linda's from Washington, D.C. We live here now with our cats.

I have four grown children: Nancy, Bill, Cheri, and Angie. Nancy and her husband, Ray, live here in Canal Winchester. They have 4 children: Whitney and Ryan (twins), Kristine, and Molly. Bill and his wife, Michelle, live in Cincinnati. Cheri and her husband, Gary, live in a northwestern Cincinnati suburb. Angie and her husband, Greg, live on the North side of Cincinnati. My sister, Karin, and her husband, Jerry, live in Delhi, just West of Cincinnati. They're all a great family!

Columbus is the capital of Ohio. It's a dynamic city, growing fast with a good economic base. At well over a million people, it's getting pretty 'big'. Columbus is probably most well known as the home of Ohio State University, home of the "Buckeyes". Like our previous home in Jacksonville, Florida, it's very flat here ... I love the mountains! But, we like it here a lot.

Linda and I are both cavers. We're both members of the National Speleological Society (NSS). The nearest "real" caves are in Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, and West Virginia, where we started caving. I'm also very into vertical caving. We both belong to the Vertical Section of the NSS. Vertical caving is similar to mountaineering ... underground ... in the dark ... just to make it more interesting!

We spend our 'free' time enjoying the Symphony, the Zoo, theatres, and movies. We are also active volunteers with the American Red Cross. We teach First Aid and CPR and we are members of the First Aid Service Corps. On the sports scene, we like football, soccer, and hockey. When we can get away from the city, we really enjoy hiking, bird-watching, and camping. All these activities keep us very busy, but they're fun!
