I’m a single retired Navy guy living on the Pacific Northwest, on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula! Love my family, friends, playing viola (and chamber music), maintaining my vegetable garden, riding my bicycle as well as my Harley-Davidson, hiking the Olympic Mountains, Forest, and Seashore... and getting together with warm, affectionate fellas.

I collect stamps, books, briar pipes, sheet music, and warm memories.

I very much appreciate the favorites, kind comments, and compliments I've received here; thanks! A lot of different kinds of people come to this site. Play nice together, folks. Keep your remarks clean and respectful to everyone, okay?
