Retired in 2014 and moved to North Central Washington State from the West side of the State to get away from the traffic and congestion. Too many people on the West side and too much rain. My wife and I now live in a small rural town surrounded by several lakes, nature areas, cattle ranchers and fruit orchards about 13 miles South of the Canadian border. I finally have time to try my hand at photography, life always seemed to get in the way before I retired. Enjoying the journey so far! Moved to Tri-cities area in South Eastern Washington in the summer of 2021.
