Photography, Art, Music, Reading (and sometimes writing) Poetry, Movies, Gardening, Cooking, sweat lodges, Camping, Hiking, Roaming National Forests and wilderness areas; while trying to avoid mosquitoes and ticks. My primary spiritual path is Buddhism, but I'm too much of an ironist to actually call myself a Buddhist.
Interesting, artistic, spiritual and creative people; models for photographic projects.
