I am here for Friends

About Me


I love the mountains, my children, my '69 New Yorker, live music, dancing. I am learning to appreciate life on the coast. I like road trips without agendas, boiled peanuts, people who say "howdy, ya'll" and mean it, Autumn, the smell of rain, hugs from old friends, used book stores, live boxing, vintage couture, storytelling, comic improv, satire. I have an ardent desire to learn all I can about jazz, a few decades to spare, so let the journey begin!
