Introduction I am a story teller searching for my voice. Now, as I close in on my 7th decade on the planet, I can see in the rear-view mirror the road I have traveled. Not an inner-state, nor even an inter-state. More like the path taken by the Donner Pass Expedition party. Erred decisions lead to the darkest hours ever spent. Loss becomes common place too often. But the indefatigable search for the ever illusive "what meaning is there to all this" goes on. Is it forward...what is forward in a life lived up-side down. The journey continues.
Interests I write about my memories growing up in East Palo Alto, CA. in the 50s & early 60s; in S.F., CA in mid & late 60s; in Whittier, CA. in 70s & 80s; in Wash DC in 70s & 80s; in high Sierra (in eastern Sierra not far from Lake Tahoe); in 90s to present Palm Springs, CA.
Favorite Movies anything with: Jeff Bridges; also like Beau Bridges; Robin Williams; Richard Gere; Nick Nolte; James (Jimmy) Stewart; Peter Sellers (the Gardener); Cary Grant; Tom Hanks; Jack Nicholson; Bruce Willis (not so much for action films); Denzil Washington (particularly biographies); Will Smith; Duval, Robert; Deniro, Robert; Paul Neuman; Robert Redford; Danny Divito; Dan Ackrode
