My Mooresville, Indiana Home

Me at home working at my computer
This is me, in my den, sitting at my computer back in 2003.
I can usually be found here when at home..
I have been online since the early Q-Link days.
I am now adjusting to not working. I retired in August 2016.
So far I don't like it, way too boring.

NOTICE:
The main focus of this web site has been documenting my travels around the world.
I have had the pleasure to visit all fifty states and all seven continents.
Over the past couple of decades I have had great fun updating this web site.
Posting my travel blogs here after completeing an exciting trip was almost as fun as the trip itself.
So it is with great sadness that I have decided to close this web site as of June 1, 2024.
Due to my mobility issues I am no longer traveling and have nothing to add to this web site.
I've determined that due to this site's declining popularity it's not worth the expense to keep it open.
I want to thank everyone for their past support. All my travel videos will remain on YouTube.

Below is a series of photos showing the four seasons from my front yard.
