    Bob's Resume:
     

    Personal History
    I am 52 years old and have lived 40 of those years in Barrington Hills and Barrington. My grand parents on both sides lived next door in Barrington Hills.
    I built my home on Country Oaks Lane, and live here with my wife, Patricia, and dog, Newton.

    Hobbies: I work on cars, I want to break the world's land speed record, I make wood projects for my wife, I work with metal, I skywatch, I like to ride horses, I trap shoot, I used to go to the Indy 500 when I had season tickets, I like history and math, and love roller coasters and I love mowing my lawn on my tractor for relaxation. My biggest hobby is solving difficult problems.

    In my early years I worked for Alex MacArthur on his farm which is now owned by Fritz Duda, the developer who is seeking to disconnect hundreds of acres from the village for a high-density development.
