Darn the priapism.

About Me

I live and work within a stone's throw from the Gulf... and try not to take it for granted. My latest fascination is nature photography, with the goal of publishing a book of local plants and animals. Most of the time, good friends and time on the water keep me sane.

My Interests

fish, pratfalls, dark chocolate, kayaking, sexy dental hygenists, volleyball, reptiles, genuine people, stars, warm salt water, memorable smells, sharp knives, people watching, ice bergs, change, crystal clear vision, butterscotch, familiarity, dirty martinis, skin

I'd like to meet:

Fun people, active people, open-minded people, obedient dogs, nice cats, gentle horses, friendly birds, and smiling kids. People who've travelled and have good stories, people who have never left home but have great insight about their lives and the world around them. People who like fish, fishing, diving, boating, kayaking, soccer, volleyball, and funny games (especially twister). People who laugh at themselves out loud, or sing in the shower, but not so much the other way around...Here are some shots from my research trip to Antarctica, winter 2005.
