ABOUT ME I'm semi-retired executive. A salty grampa who is kind, confident, active, honest, open minded, a bit of a goof. I have a lust for life that is paired with a curiosity about the world and the people in it. My friends say I am a blend of Tom Hanks (Castaway) and Captain Jack Sparrow. Basically I'm... a sailor w a lot of life stories.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
Birth of my three kids. Jumped out of an airplane. Stood on the biggest rock on the biggest pond, on the biggest island that’s on the biggest lake that’s on the biggest island in the biggest freshwater lake in the United States. I have a crocodile in my backyard. We don’t see eye to eye yet.

My Interests
As the song goes ... "in my next thirty years" im gonna sail, paint, hike, bike, fish and play. More. I have a kite "Brandy" that has been around the globe and now to the furthest points north and south of the continental US. I am now headed east and west. Want to do the Redwood forest and up the coast on a motorcycle. Also up to Maine.
