As a writer my favorite subjects to share are:

AVIATION STORIES Gleaned from 35 years as an airline pilot with 21,000 hours. Juicy tidbits that the airlines would probably rather not talk about😊



SAILING ADVENTURES A lifelong love of the sea and sailing has produced adventures, dramas and near misses. I will share The Good (mostly), The Bad (learning experiences), and The Ugly (lucky to still be here:-)) But I would do it all over again!

This article below appeared in The Miami Hearld July 31, 1960 (I was 15) My friend Jim Ford and I sailed my boat from Miami to Key West and back. But more on this in a story to follow soon!

LIFE 101 At 77, I've learned a few things, made mistakes and learned many lessons the hard way. If I can help others avoid pitfalls or give them a hand up, I've accomplished my goal! I also want to share what it takes to be half of a 54 year marriage. Also, since we live on our daughter's property in our own cottage, I'd like to share the value of living within an extended family.



HUMOR If I can share a story that brightens your day, I win!

CURRENT EVENTS I look for inspiring stories to share, and try to stay on the positive side.

SIMPLER LIFESTYLES We designed and built our 784 sf cottage on our daughter's property for the two of us. After almost 5 years, it is the perfect size, extremely comfortable, economical and energy efficient. It's bigger than a "Tiny House" which is commonly built on a trailer frame but smaller than the typical small home and uses standard building techniques. Stories, plans and details to follow soon!



NEW ENVIROMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES There are exciting advances that will make our world a better place! I want to share some that you may not have heard about!
