Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Find someone who can teach me to do this.
ABOUT ME
There's no question I was born in the wrong decade. The sixties and seventies were where it was at. I thrive on their music and ideas. I trust people and consider them friends until they give me a reason not to. Everyone deserves a chance.
PHILOSOPHY
Live every day to its fullest. There's not as much time as we all think; you should enjoy every minute of it. Don't sweat the small stuff; there's no use worrying about something that may not happen.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Unfortunately, I'm fairly transient and don't have any space to offer.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've been lucky enough to have people host me a couple times. They were all really hep cats.
Interests
Anything to do with music: the history, the sound, the people involved. I always carry a book with me, as I spend countless hours reading. Anything outdoors is straight with me. Rock-climbing, mountain biking, hiking, fishing, scenic photography.

I've seen some of the most incredible places in this country. I visited the Catalina Islands, Redwood/Sequoia Natl Parks, Pinnacles, spelunked in Mercer Caverns, worked/lived in Yellowstone Natl Park. No big deal.
Teach, Learn, Share
I work with my hands a lot. I know simple household fixes, workin on cars and can pretty much whip up anything in a kitchen from scratch. I like teaching others what I know almost as much as I like learning new things.
