 Welcome
to my
world. My current
number one hobby was woodworking, emphasis on hobby. Lately
though, art (of a
sort) has been intruding. I do this stuff for my own
amusement (and sometimes frustration). Most of this site will be
devoted to woodworking, but other areas of interest, including
aviation, photography, and other subjects that appeal to me will also
show
up now and then. Have a look around; if you leave
with nothing
else, at least you can say you were here and lived to tell about it. It
ain't much, but its home.---->>>>><<<<<----
A little
bio:
Born and raised in Illinois, married in 1969,
moved to Oregon in 1970, and Colorado in 1997. I've operated front-end
loaders, graduated from Ray
College of Design in Chicago, and worked in offset printing
making color separations and plates. I opened my own computer store in
Salem in 1983. I've done a lot
of
computer repair and support, and I'm quite convinced
that end-users cause brain damage. I got my pilot's license in 1988
(Private, SEL). I retired October 1st, 2004, and
my wife thinks I don't have enough to do.

Last update: September 20, 2007 Now the latest is June 6, 2009 In Memoriam We
lost a beloved family member today. Ky was one year old when we adopted
her in 1994. She was the most loveable, mellow, and
eager-to-please companion we've ever known. She died just one day shy
of her 15th year with us, at home, surrounded by those she loved. We
were told by the vet that Ky was the human equivalent of 100 years old.
She had a good run, but when she fell down for the final time and
couldn't get up this morning, she let us know the time had come. We'll
bury her ashes in her favorite shady spot in the yard. (Ky is the
heeler/shepherd mix. The Beagle is Sage, and she will sorely miss her
buddy.)
