I was introduced to camping when I lived in Wichita Falls, TX
during the 6th grade. My parents talked me into joining scouting
and I had a blast. I was lucky enough to have an exceptional troop
leader that cared about our advancement. My father got wrapped
up in the troop as well and we would go on any camping trip that was
planned. I still have an axe that was awarded to me from that
troop.
My father was in the Marines and my mother was a good ole
country girl from middle Tennessee. I have one sister, thank
goodness, that lives in Massachusetts, but I don't hold that
against her (yeah, not much). We moved many times and lived in
Tennessee, Texas, North Carolina, California and Hawaii. I joined
the Air Force after having way too much fun in college. Stayed 22
years and lived in Louisiana, Florida, Oklahoma, Hawaii and England.
When I retired from the Air Force I moved to Dallas, TX and
lived there for 8 years before heading back to Nashville.
I have three wonderful children; Christie, John and Alysa. Christie
graduated from Oklahoma State Univ. and now lives in
Connecticut. John graduated from Georgia State Univ. and lives
and works in Atlanta, GA. Alysa moved back with me and will be
attending Middle TN State Univ this year. Christie is in the
computer business like me; John is into cars and movie productions;
Alysa is working at a sport store and plans to return to playing
softball.
John has camped with me once and I have given him one of my tents
(the one pictured on Henry Horton & Mousetail). I plan on taking
Alysa out with me in the near future. And if I can get my oldest to
come down below the Mason/Dixon, I'll take her too.
I currently live just outside Nashville with my girlfriend Angela
who is the love of my life. My hobbies are camping, carving and
caching. I work within the computer business. I have really
started enjoying getting back out in the woods. Tennessee is a
beautiful state and I wish I had moved back sooner than I did.
I enjoy the peace and quiet nature has to offer. This country of
ours is so large and beautiful and there is so much to see and savor.
