About Me

Back in Maine for Spring. So I need to Up date this thing. Sometime soon the fast up date:I just spent 2 weeks in Florida with work doing Prescribed Burns all over the state. The fires where amazing and we completed many ecological goals. There are some pics (on the pics page).I’m off to AZ to raft the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon , on an privet trip for 3 weeks. Should be incredible. Well hope your all well and talk soon. We will all have to hang and check up sometime soon.Back in Maine form a long time away up in Vermont and California. Just getting into this thing. Well I'm an environmental biologist/ land maniger/ wildland/Rx fire specialist (could the tile get longer"yes"). I like to be on the run, outside. My personal rant: I am not to into this myspace, but I’m getting in touch with old friends, either we changed phone numbers, changed states, got better jobs or just got chough up in a life. This is a great way to find though people as well as meeting new like minded folks.If you don’t know me all ready, I Guess you could call me an avid outdoorsman: Mt. biker, teleskier, kayaker, backpacker and skinny dipper (did I just say that?).
