This creates difficulty in making traveling abroad a reality. He longs to go to Portu- gal. He has for' a long time had a desire to go there. "It's a beautiful country with won- derful people, good food and great wine," Matteson says. "What else do you need?" he added with a chuckle. He also expressed interest in Spain and Morocco. · Lamb had this to say about teaching. "I enjoy the work. I enjoy the people, I en- joy the students." Even before retirement, he had hoped to return to the college to serve in some function. On the holhe front, Lamb still continues to play golf- golf- golf. He even played in the morning before this inter- view. He also draws up house plans for people. This is a self employment project for him. It's grown since he retired and it has the potential to grow more if he wants it to. According to Lamb, Kathy Dapprich brought µp the idea of possibly team- teaching a few classes with him in the spring. This is something he plans 'to con- sider. Lamb noted only one small drawback now that he's back. It takes more effort to correct papers than it used to. Lamb and Matteson are credits to this institution.
