After a stint in the U. S. Army and earning a BS degree
from the University of Illinois, I worked as a park ranger
with the National Park Service. From there, I worked for
20-years with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's
Department in California. My wife Janice and I retired
to the small town of Lakeview, a few miles west of
Mountain Home, Arkansas.
I can usually be found now in my shop (which is a real
mess), working on the lathe. I enjoy the sound of the
tools cutting into the wood blank and watching the
ever-changing patterns in the wood as the waste is cut
away.
