About Me


Writer...thinker...dreamer...
Live to run: Run to live. Health is not an option. I run and walk everyday at Lake Mayer. Love the outdoors and animals, especially my big boy "Bear". I have one daughter who lives in Illinois, where I grew up. I'm currently taking some relaxation time and fixing up a house I bought off Montgomery Crossroads to flip it....
I think you can tell a LOT about someone by their music. So here's 75 songs that have meant something to me at one point of my life or another. My taste runs ECLECTIC! Enjoy...
