CURRENT MISSION

Making my wife happy.

ABOUT ME

I'm retired but active. I still cross country ski, sail, canoe/kayak and travel in our camper-van. I do some volunteer work with our local community and church. Currently I classify myself as a handy-man.
Our current interests are the Lewis and Clark and Oregon Trails in the western U.S. We have traveled the Lewis and Clark Trail extensively.

PHILOSOPHY

I have learned listening to others is a rewarding experience. Every persons has a story and it's usually more interesting than you think.
I live my life now helping others, as others, in my past, have helped me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new to the CS project and currently learning how it works.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Our CS experience is limited to relatives, however in our travels with our camper we have been invited to stay in back yards or drives. Yes, we do have some unique stories about our experiences traveling in the western U.S
