I've been in Tuolumne County in the Sierra for almost
40 years, with about 25 years working as a District
Archaeologist on the Stanislaus National Forest. I
was married briefly, and have one son Bret (23) who
is getting his MFA in digital graphic art at Syracuse
University, NY along with his fiancé. I am forever
studying Spanish, but manage to find interesting
places -such as backpacking in the Andes and Amazon -
to practice it.
About 5 years ago, I ran for the local water board
and have been busy with that ever since. It's been an
education. Mark Twain was right when he said
Whiskey's for drinkin' Water's for fightin' over. And
did you know that water will flow up hill to money?
When not in meetings I am in the garden, binoculors
handy, enjoying the wildlife on my acreage.
