About Me



My Interests

My main interest would be to win the lottery and never work again. Ha! Then I could really do the things I love most....being outside as much as possible. Canoeing, hiking, reading, riding horses, photgraphy (which I never do enough), music....I really dig being outdoors with my dogs...at the cliffs or Lake Harris. Anywhere that's remotely "in the country."
