I know more than I want to, but not as much as I need to.

About Me

As of this writing I'm 55 years old. I've been married for 29 years although my wife doesn't stay with me these days, her idea not mine. I work for a metal treating company and have worked there for a total of 33 years in two installments, 15 years the first time and 18 years this time, with a year spent at another job in between. It may sound dull, but what we do and how we do it is actually pretty cool, almost magical to the uninitiated eye. Visualize steel reaching red heat in seconds as you watch with no apparent heat source in sight...

My Interests

Hiking, exploring, camping, hunting (basically hiking with a gun because I'm not real eager to shoot anything), touring and sightseeing, eating good food, drinking (Do ya like drinkin'? Aw well who don't?), fooling around on the computer, watching tv, and when I get real ambitious, trying to work out a bit to delay the onset of "old man body". I also try a bit of cooking now and then...

I'd like to meet:
