CURRENT MISSION

To share our lovely country home with interesting travelers and to meet new friends wherever we travel.

ABOUT ME

Mostly self taught, I like to work with my hands. It's been a good day if I've built something or fixed something. My couch potato home is my castle. I have stacks of magazines (all genres) but am not much of a book reader. I like spending time outdoors but am not especially athletic. I got my first television while living on a sailboat in my mid-forties (the boat was too small for more vigorous activities) and now watch way too much TV. I've been an avid public radio listener for almost thirty years, although I hate opera and dislike classical music in general, have an ecclectic CD collection, and am still somewhat computer challenged.

PHILOSOPHY

Never say never, Less is more, and Form follows function.
