Places I've been

I was stationed most of my time in the service at Travis AFB in Northern California.I've been to Crater Lake in Oregon and thought it beautiful. Been to Arkansas, and I liked it. Went to Washington D.C. in 1982 and my flight's landing was diverted because of a plane crash into the Potomac. Been across Missouri all the way to St. Louis. Driven up through Colorado, across Wyoming to Utah. Colorado is great. I saw Michigan last year. Pretty country up there.

Favorite Animals

My cats. Squirrels. I like squirrels. Tigers are cool, but I wouldn't want one. Ditto ostriches, because I remember a drive-through safari thing where I had a bucket of food that I could throw food out or feed to the animals close up, and the ostriches were sneaky and persistent, sticking their heads through the window and I'm almost guillotining when I roll up the window to get rid of them. Hold on. This is favorite animals, so the tigers and ostriches don't really count. Ok. My cats and squirrels and let's leave it at that.
