A bit about me...I'm passionate about peace, animals, nature, and social justice. I love my 2 young adult children and kind husband. For fun I travel far and wide, enjoy the company of friends, play my mandolin, and ride my bike along the river. For rejuvenation I make pottery, knit a cabled sweater, grow flowers and vegetables, and take hikes with my dog. I'm a lifelong learner and explorer doing my best to live by the campsite rule: leave the world better than how I found it.
