Michael Blickenstaff

Worked for AE Staley INC. for 30 years. 15 years in Lafayette, 15 years in East Tennessee. Retired in 2006 from Tate&Lyle (Staley). Moved to California as plant manager of the first ethanol plant in CA. Since then I have been a Plant manager or VP overseeing the construction and start up of ethanol plants in Kansas,Tennessee, Ohio, Texas, Illinois, California and Jamacia. I have started my own consulting buisness for the Bio-Fuel industry.
I have rode my Harley in every state in the U.S. I just moved back to Lafayette in April to be close to my kids and grandson.
When I lived in East Tennessee, I built a 4500 sq ft log home on 20 acres of hardwoods in the middle of Cherokee National forest. BY MYSELF..... OK and the ex....
All my travels I have made many new friends and got to see all of the United States.
As of November, I'm retired and moved back to beautiful Murfreesboro Tennessee. My wife and I have grandkids here and now are official babysitter. But we love it.

Well football of course.....all the fun our class had.
remember when we won't sing at the Christmas assemble? Our class stood up to the dress code too....
Times back then were so easy.... just wish we knew that then......
