About me, where do I start? I retired, and I have a lot of time on my hands. So after the fish quit biting and my wife's honey-do list was finely done, I needed something to keep me busy. So here I am doing something I always wanted to do: writing and sharing my knowledge and helping someone else along their way, leaving them with knowledge, adventure, and laughter. After all, life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you're going to get.
