Introduction I am a retired educator living on the Western Slope of Colorado. I am a photographer and enjoy capturing the beautiful environment that surrounds me. I am also an avid reader and history buff. As a lifetime 'political junkie' I enjoy sharing my opinion on the current state of the nation as well as other current events.
Interests Photography, writing, fiber arts and Polymer clay.
Favorite Movies I enjoyed 12 Years A Slave, The Dallas Buyers Club, American Hustle and the Wolf of Wall Street. I love the TV shows Scandal, Fargo, Grey's Anatomy, The Good Wife, Boardwalk Empire and Game of Thrones.
Favorite Music All Music! Especially the 25th anniversary performance of Phantom of the Opera.
