CURRENT MISSION

To shelter the poor wayfaring man(woman) of grief

ABOUT ME

Mic and I have been married for six years and have one daughter from Michael's previous marriage whodelights us with her presence a portion of each summer. We are very conservative in some things, but lean to the left in most others. We are adventurous, but too poor to really go on too many distant adventures. (although we go on all kinds of adventures in the western US) We would like the world to come to us since right now we can't go to it.

Mic is a tech geek, but is also a lover of nature and can identify many flora and fauna locally.

I love learning about people (hence the degree in anthropology),their stories, their culture, their quirks.

We both love trivia and strategy games. We are Anime fans (as well as many other cartoon genres) We love computer gamers (but currently lack an internet connection)

We love museums and plays and hiking.

PHILOSOPHY

Mic - Reduce, Reuse, Recycle - Everything!!
Libby - life is a state of becoming and creating.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The miracles increase everyday and cou;d not be contained here.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have nothing wise of my own, but will share one of my favorite quotes (though it may be over used) by Marianne Williamson from her book "A Return to Love":

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
