Welcome

"Happy is the man who, like Ulysses, has made a fine voyage, or has won the Golden Fleece, and then returns, experienced and knowledgeable, to spend the rest of his life among his family!" ~ Joachim Du Bellay   

How the hell did you find this site?

I initially made it to learn the process, but soon came to realize that it couldn't be a private thing.  People are going to find what is posted on the web, comment, take offense, and generally begin to make it into something it wasn't meant to be.  This place on the web isn't meant to be entertaining, profound, or newsworthy.

 The one good thing I like about having a web presence is that it has made it easy for old friends from around the world, troopers from the 82nd, and mates from Para Reg to find me.  The occasional oddballs who have shown up have been easy enough to deal with.

When I began mapping it out, I wondered what I could possibly include in it.  I found that if I just talked about the stuff that interested me and the people in my life, that it would take on a life of its own and pretty much design itself; all I had to do was categorize.

The photos you will find here are mostly mine.  Where I have used someone else's, I always try to give proper credit.

If you elect to stay around, I hope you enjoy what you see and read. You will certainly meet some pretty great folks.  My e-mail is listed; please say hello.  No matter what you may hear, I actually do like people.
