Places I've been

Illinois is where I grew up and currently live. BC is where I first got out on my own and lived for a bit in a commune. Oregon - picked fruit and christmas trees. Montana - lived and worked on a ranch.

More about me

I came from a small town. Worked on farms until I was 20. learned the diesel mechanic trade and plied it on farms, ranches and eventually mass transit.

I've done a lot of camping, helped raise three awesome kids (last one left the nest in early May).

Music was my passion early, now it is woodworking.

Someday soon I will move to Minnesota on some acreage and work wood for my income.

playing drums - trapset, african, bongo, conga working wood - furniture, boxes
