Where to start, after Graduation, Lian and I moved to Yellowknife in September where I hired as the Afternoon Drive Announcer for an FM Country station. We lived there until March of 1997 when a format change allowed us to move back to civilization.

From there I was able to head back to school and took the Computer Programmer Anaylst program at Canadore, graduating in April of 2000. I was hired full-time by Ontario Northland right here in North Bay, as a Computer Technician and continue to work there under our new name Ontera.

In between, Lian and I were married in August 2003, close to 10 years after we 'hooked' up at school (I know she'll like that wording). Lian gave birth to our beautiful daughter Lilly Irene, August 18th 2004, and we are currently expecting a new arrival due the middle of April 2006. Check out www.craigwallace.ca to see pictures on my blog.

I continue to enjoy playing golf but I was sidelined for about 11 weeks in May 2005, after having successful spinal fusion surgery to repair a problem with my lower back. Other things on my busy agenda included developing the website and online registration for my old Highschool's 100th Reunion that took place in September 2005. I have won a few local high profile golf tournaments and for the last 5 years Lian and I helped organize a local golf tournament in memory a friend that passed away from Cancer in 2000 (we have raised close to $10,000 for Cancer support groups and a local Children's Summer Camp).

On the radio front, after getting back to North Bay I was hired by Peter McKweon to fill in for a few vacationing announcers and after that worked part-time weekends voice-tracking for The Fox and CKAT. Since my surgery I am semi-retired, but I still get called upon to round out golf foursomes by the Sales Manager...they say I'm still listed on the payroll...lol..

That's about it, there is probably more and will add more later.
