About Me

Oregon Coast denizen getting back to striding the Earth once again. Will need some help along the way. (Don't we all?)

Fair weather days are spent motorbiking, drumming, birding, hiking, surfing, drawing, baking, learning, or being plain still. Foul weather days are spent reading, drumming, binging, drawing, learning, storm watching, or being plain still.

Don't do drugs. However, I like STRONG coffee.
