About Me:

I have more time behind me in the career than in front of me. My two girls are just about grown. I am looking forward to wearing out my Harley so I can get another one and do the same. I enjoy going to work (how many people can say that). I enjoy our monthly poker games. I take pleasure in spirited conversation with close friends, a stiff drink and a fine cigar. My wife and I live everyday…you never know when it will be your last. Stay safe!
