Occupation Meteorologist...Retired as of Sep 2006
Location California
Introduction After over 28 years in the National Weather Service, I have finally retired and will travel and explore as much as possible over the coming years. There are many things I like to do that I have been too lazy to pursue vigorously while working, including writing, photography, playing the electric guitar: learning foreign languages; possibly even reviving my stamp collection which was lost years ago. Also, I need to get into better shape! Now that I'm retiring, I'd like to spend a month or two at a time living in different places to really get a feel for them above the normal sightseeing that a touron does; I want to feel what it's like to live in places rather than just visiting them. Spots I'd like to hang out at for long periods of time include Australia, Ireland, Spain, Italy, Hawaii, Lake Tahoe, and...geez, there are hundreds of others!
Interests Traveling, music, reading, writing, international affairs, history, sports
Favorite Music Rock and roll. I love everything from the Beatles to Coldplay.
