Resumen
Sobre mí
CURRENT MISSION
Happy to learn about other people's cultures and happy to share our home.
ABOUT ME
Jeff is a retired US Forest Service Fire Captain and an all around great guy who can do anything (this unbiased statement was written by his wife, Denise =). Denise is an online, public-school teacher for students aged 5 to 18, who also works with at-risk teens as a 'Strengths-Based Educational Director.' Our teen & young adult sons/daughters are really cool people too. Our family includes runners, a chess lover, an EMT, church goers, UCLA alumni, ping pong players, vegetarians, meat-eaters, people who cancel out each other's votes and still love each other, snowboarders and more terrific people.
PHILOSOPHY
We want to live our lives to love God and love the people He puts in our path. Matthew 6:33 says it all.

Amazing things we have seen and done? Too many to list!
Enseña, aprende, comparte
Denise: I love teaching children -- and inspiring other teachers to help students find and utilize their strengths. I'm good at helping people explore their college and educational options. I make delicious homemade bread, and know about health, nutrition and alternative medicine. Jeff: I am willing to show anyone who wants to learn how to work with tools, how to do CPR, the essentials of backpacking and wilderness survival, and how to make a great barbeque.
