About Me

I am a Respiratory Therapist-I work at 2 hospitals 12 hour night shifts right now (for lack of anything else exciting to do-LOL). I also raise Paints & Quarter Horses on my 28 acre farm here in Michigan. I teach riding, and coach beginner riders and children. I enjoy the outdoors, hiking/hunting/camping/boating, swimming & water sports. I also enjoy crafting-mainly bead work, and jewlery making. Enjoy cooking and the "lost art" of canning.
