Welcome to my blog.

      Here is a little about me...

       For pleasure, I enjoy cycling, hiking, camping, traveling, theater, movies, music, and most of all; kayaking. I grew up in Phoenix, Arizona, living there for six years.  After that, I moved to Bolivar, New York where I lived for 11 years before I enjoyed the ocean and sunshine in Daytona Beach, Florida. Some pleasant turn of events enabled me to move to Honolulu, HI, where I lived for two years, then was off to the swamps and alligators in Shreveport, Louisianna.  Home beckoned to me, so I moved back to  Little Genesee, New York for two years, then settled into Bradford, Pennsylvania for 20 years. My two children are adults, one living in Pittsburgh, Pa working as an interior designer and the other lives in Bradford and works as a chemist.
