CURRENT MISSION Appalachian Ohio: the best kept secret! ABOUT ME We live in small, rural town outside Athens, Ohio and Ohio University. It is a great place and full of wonderful things to do. We garden, canoe, hike, drum and host jovial social events. PHILOSOPHY SUCCESS To laugh often and much: to win the respect of intelligent people and appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded. Ralph Waldo Emerson
