I'm an easy going guy who loves my family (wife and 4 children - 3 adult one school age) ,the outdoors and nature. I live on a rural property by a river and close to mountains. I am extremely interested in other cultures and discussing life with persons from different countries to get different world perspectives. I see beauty in nature and have always been a writer (I wish I could have been a singer but sadly not !!) I love music, particularly traditional country music but enjoy many genres as well. I have a lifelong interest and qualifications in meteorology.
