I'm from San Diego CA and now reside in Port Orange FL in the Spruce Creek Fly-In community, with occasional visits to my other home in Idaho. I am a wildlife photographer, have led several photo safaris and conducted workshops in Kenya and Tanzania. I grew up with Disneyland and am addicted to Walt Disney World. I am a trained College of Disney Knowledge "Disney Specialist."

I have an unnatural obsession with CSI because it feeds my analytical thought processes. I love my "patio time." I can't live without my moments of quiet solitude. I have never smoked and I rarely drink alcohol. I enjoy getting to know others with a variety of backgrounds and interests.
