A Journey Through My World
When I am not in school teaching, I love to be outdoors.
My favorite place to be is the Adirondack mountains.
I spend as much time as I possibly can (which isn't much at times) with my family.
I also enjoy the solitude of our cabin in the Adirondacks.

Please check out the following links to take a journey through my world.

 bullet My Family
My family is very small if you only count the people. I have my daughter, Rachael, my parents, and my long-term friend, Joe. I owe so much to my family. I love my parents for all the support they have given me. Even after everything I've put them through, they have managed to stay married for over 40 years, for which I'm very grateful. My family just wouldn't be complete without the furry, or not so furry, members::
                              -Clio, my dog and second daughter
                              -Munsee, Annie, Oliver, Sierra, and Addoette
                              -Mr. Spiky Needles, 4 hermit crabs, several fish and aquatic frogs
                                                                                                                           
bulletThe Cabin
An excellent place to get away for some R & R

bulletHiking
*At this time, this page takes a long time to load. I will need to make the tough decision of removing a few pictures. But which ones? I love them all!! Here you will see some beautiful shots mostly taken in the High Peaks region of the Adirondacks.
There is something about being on the trail that rejuvenates the soul and provides a sense of peace offered no where else.
bulletCaving
Never thought I could do it, but I was convinced. I'm very glad I did, what an unforgettable experience! Being in spaces so tight you had to move one squirm at a time was challenging, but the spectacular geology had made it worth every inch.
For one who loves geology, it was an experience that certainly lends itself well towards becoming a full-fledged hobby.

Other Hobbies and Areas of Interests
bulletGeology/Earth Science
This page was developed as a means for me to share my love of learning and discovering new ideas involving all subjects within the field of geology. Most of my leisure reading includes topics relating to earth science. I'm fascinated with observing the world around me and attempting to understand its formation. Many vacations and day trips have involved searching for some  particular fossil or view of a revealing outcrop.

  bullet  Animal Care and Treatment
Just simply a place for me to "speak for those who can't speak for themselves."
