About me

Introduction	I went to high school in the town of Pellston, just south of the Mackinac Bridge. I was blessed to know this country due to my father, Leonard. He first came up to the tip of the mitt after serving on submarines in the South Pacific in WWII. He worked in various roles in Upper Michigan, including as a lumber jack in the U.P. around Newberry. He introduced me to the rivers, lakes, streams, woods and beauty of the U.P. starting from birth. I could never get it out of my blood. No matter where I was, from college in Florida, to studying in Maine, medical school in Iowa, and yes, even fishing in Alaska, I could never get Northern Michigan out of my head. It is said, you can take the boy out of Michigan, but you can't take Michigan out of the boy. Man it's good to be going home.
