I’m a happily married, retired Registered Professional Nurse. I enjoy gardening, bicycling and our pets.., dogs and cats. I have enjoyed photography all my life and have an insatiable interest in mycology. I’ve never traveled outside of the United States yet have a great interest in other cultures and especially the foods that they eat. We live in a small town in the middle of the United States in a predominately agribusiness area of the Midwest. My wife and I bicycle rail to trails and other country roads as planned out by me. I am a great grandfather, have brothers.
