I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

The old and wise phrase of "Don't judge a book by it's cover" applies to me very well. I talk alot but am a good listener. I have no problems flirting but am very shy and unsure of myself inside. I act like a ditz but am intelligent and streetwise. Take time to seriously talk with me and you may be surprised by what you find in the pages of my "book". I have a lot of interests and the desire to learn new things. I enjoy the role of being Mistress Barbossa during faires and other pirate events. It's not all play though because I research the garb, pirate history, weapons, regional history and some of the language plus do photography for Capts Barbossa and Jack. I love the challenge of researching the history for both my pirate life and for my family history. Maybe both lines of research will cross someday. Would like to expand my photogragphy skills to doing portraits and landscapes on a professional level. Who knows where the winds of chance will take me next.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People with a good attitude about themselves and the world around them are great to get to know.

Pics of Ice Storm

The sun was starting to warm up the ice on the trees making them shimmer in the light.  I just couldn't resist taking some pictures of them.  It is amazing that something that can be so dest...

Let down but hopeful

I stopped to check out a motorcycle that was for sale on my way to Olathe Saturday.  It was a 03 Rebel 250.  It felt right to sit on it but since I didn't know much about the mechanics ...
