Among my passions including nature, the wilderness, antiques, vintage, old trains and planes (I soloed in a 1946 Aeronca Champ) and books, I share my life with a loving, funny Boxer dog who makes me laugh multiple times a day.

I can't remember when I wasn't on a scavenger hunt for beloved found objects: in nature as well as at artist fairs, arts and crafts shows, National Parks, back country rural roads and art galleries. I can draw only stick figures and feel truly awed by creative expression of the soul through all kinds of artwork.

"No kind action ever stops with itself. One kind action leads to another. Good example is followed. A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions, and the roots spring up and make new trees. The greatest work that kindness does to others is that it makes them kind themselves."
- Amelia Earhart
