About me

I'm from Ventura California but at present I'm living in the burbs near Bangkok in Thailand. I came here in Sept. 1996 to visit a sister and never seemed to find my way back to the states. I'm retired from the U.S. military. I recieve a monthly retirement check. I love travel and history. I spend some of my time just poking around and seeing and meeting alot of different types of people. I like to spend time on the internet. For me there are quiet and sometimes hetic days. But, no complaints from me. Things could be a heck of alot worse.

  • As i told someone else...i'm not used to looking here for comments and i don't always read the 'digest' weekly. Sorry i didn't see this when you posted it. i'm still learning myself but i try to encourage others whenever possible. i'm fortunate in having my 24 yr old in residence...she's been writing online for about a decade now and has been a big help.
