Avid gardener who loves to cook, and eat! Taking photographs for 40 + year. I'm now on my second digital camera, a Nikon D-7000. Married to Barb for 39 years, and we have 2 sons. Michael married Teresa Dallinger in October of 2013 , and they live in northern VA. Teresa is a geotechnical engineer, and Mike is an "IT guy" who does CRM stuff for a company called Power Objects. Andrew is attempting to be a novelist, and is finishing his first novel. He still lives here with us north of Charlottesville with our 2 dogs, Xena and Odin, and our 2 cats Isis and Loki. I enjoy taking landscape photos, as well as trains, flowers and vegetables.
