I enjoy reading of all types (fiction or nonfiction) and usually have two books in progress at the same time. I'm currently reading "A Canticle for Leibowitz" and attempt to read "A Farewell to Arms" translated into Italian. I am an avid gardener -- I should add that I do the vegetables and my wife does the flowers. I work at a liberal arts college as an administrator and enjoy the cultural and intellectual diversity that we enjoy here.
