Let's Meet Our Good Pal:
silvera
Retired, living blissfully at 5000' near an inactive (I hope) volcano in Central America. Spent most of my adult life engaged in some form of graphic design. Have a nice digital camera/darkroom and am trying to master Photoshop and Spanish. Politically... muy left of center. Still pay close attention and am registered to vote. Believe it or not, I can write in complete sentences.
