I have been described as "eccentric", with an ever-growing list of Hobbies. Wine making, rock tumbling, wood carving. You name it, I have probably done it. My bookshelves are full of fiction and thrillers. I journal daily. I'm an amateur writer wanting to publish someday. Plants and Gardening are a passion. I have a Dog and two black cats. I work in healthcare. and also animal conservation on the side. Hiking the Grand Canyons and other State Parks in the western US next month. I'm here to get away from technology and connect with people the old-fashioned way, by pen and paper!
