About Me

CURRENT MISSIon

ABOUT ME

I play tennis. I am an outdoor enthusiast. I love to be with people to cook or play cards or plan a trip. I live three hours from the Boundary Waters Canoe area, one of our national parks. I have a lot of friends that kayak our beautiful lakes and I have too but I have done a lot more canoeing than kayaking and I would love to take anyone on a trip into the BWCA. I also love to fish our beautiful lakes. I do a lot on the lakes like tubing, skiing, wakeboarding or boating out to the islands. I live in a beautiful area. I have been playing tennis with a group and everyone is welcome

PHILOSOPHY

Power to the people. I am hoping that the occupy movement will be a new movement to move people out of their complacency. I feel that I need to make changes personally so that I can be a more comfortable in my own skin and so I can contribute positively to the lifes of the people around me.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like jazz, and all sorts of music that i just hear that is sort of jazzy but folky. I have always loved Bob Dylan and the Beatles but the list is long like joni mitchell, It is hard to think of them all.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So much. My son and I hiked Glacier two summers in a row and that was fantastic. I want to do Zion and Bryce soon. I am going to travel in South America this year but next year? I have backpacked in the Grand Canyon. I went scuba diving in Roatan, Honduras which was fabulous. I have traveled all over Mexico and expect to do it many more times.

Teach, Learn, Share

I just listened to David Cobb from the "move to amend" movement and he was brilliant. I enjoy interviews with famous people that I have caught here and there. Listening to Jane Fonda was wonderful and I caught Gloria Steinem at that time. She called women tyhe new immigrants and when you hear Cobb and think about how our minds are molded by the culture that we live in it all clicks.
