ABOUT ME

I am a very active 65 year old male. My wife and I live in a rather rural part of North Western Wisconsin about 13 miles outside a small town of 2,000 people. We Have three grown children who have all moved on. We live here in Wisconsin during the summers and just outside Orlando Florida during the winters.
