Hometown

Akron, Ohio

Places I've been

Born in Akron - an industrial town which was the headquarters of virtually all of the U.S. based rubber companies (Goodyear, Goodrich, General Tire, etc.) near the Cuyahoga River -- which was the first river in the history of man known to have caught on fire (June 22, 1969). After high school I hitchhiked around the U.S. to Washington D.C., Washington State, California, and many points between. I went to college in St. Louis, Missouri, and I've been around the Sante Fe and Taos area as well as Overland Park, Kansas. I've visited people in Juarez, Mexico, and family in Tennessee, Kentucky, and Michigan.

More about me

I am a multi-faceted individual with a passion for learning, art appreciation, love, and life.  I've probably lived as much in my 56 years as 3 or 4 lifetimes for most people.  

My thinking and experience are not mainstream.  

While my life hasn't been what I would call easy,

it has certainly been an adventure.   

Activities

Being in Nature, with friends, or enjoying every aspect of life doing what I love.
