Hello:

I was born in Muncie, Indiana, in 1948. This was a small town with corn fields around it and a river meandering through. The river was my continual adventure. Muncie was a good place to grow-up.

My early years were spent in Indiana, but at about 6 years of age I moved to Southern California and spent all my time in the Ocean. I returned to Indiana a few years later.

I attended public school from the 4th Grade through High School there. Soon thereafter I moved to California again, where I lived most of my life, again, back to the Ocean.

I have a brother, Jimmy, and two sisters, Paula and Sheila, and a loving mother, her friends call her "Vi" (Violet), we call her Mom. Last, but by no means least, the love of my life for the past twenty-four years, my wife and soulmate, Barbara.

My hobbies include fishing, hunting, hiking, backpacking, underwater diving, the practice of the art of falconry, and of course, outdoor photography.
