Born in Aurora, Illinois in 1968. Grew up throughout the United States. Dad and Grandpa, though single and still searching soulmate Enjoy playing practical jokes on friends, and I am a bit of a smartass. My passion is the outdoors, hiking, kayaking, fishing, camping, and much more. Do enjoy road trips, travel, and adventure. There is so much to see and do in this world and the goal is to take in what I can before I go. Writing poetry as well as drawing relaxes me. In 2005 I lost 90% of my written work to a fire, and when I discovered LULU and self-publishing I did not hesitate to publish when I had enough material. Remember Life is filled with endless possibilities.
