About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Study the sculpture of Peter Grippe. Travel a lot. Get credentialed as an archivist.

ABOUT ME

People think that I am outgoing, have a good sense of humor, and that I'm tolerant and fair. They know I'm good for a chat or a cup of tea or coffee. They also know I love going out to eat.

PHILOSOPHY

I do my best to attend to the five testimonies of the Religious Society of Friends (the Quakers): Simplicity, Peace, Integrity, Community, Equality (SPICE is the acronym for ease in remembering).

Interests

Travel, good food, ideas, information gathering. I love seeing fine art and exploring different cultural approaches to thought and beauty.
