I am what my name states, am married with 5 children, have no post secondary education but have learned many things in the school of hard knocks,(which means i have tried many things and made many mistakes but has been always educational). Care about the world and the people who inhabit it, am a conservative about money but keep an open mind on most other issues. Do have beliefs but they are personal. Enjoy nature,music,skiing (downhill and water)fine food and making my own beef jerky.
If you ever have any questions please ask.
I would like to explain why I chose the picture of our planet as my avatar,they say that any person who travels to space looks at the earth in a different way when they return , by viewing the planet from space we cannot see all the borders, religions, politics ,ethnic groups or anything else that causes us to fight over , all one can see is our home . If we thought of it as home maybe we could care more for its well being as well as those who live here
