Welcome to my little corner of the Internet. Here you will find different musings and descriptions of the various happenings in my life. Anything from political and religious opinions to fantastical writings that have absolutely nothing to do with anything important. Some days I may write about my educational adventures and others I may be writing about the rising price of gasoline, you just never know. So, if this is your cup of tea or if you are just looking for the entertainment of reading other people's thoughts, I welcome you and invite you to subscribe to my blog (look for the link in the sidebar).

I'm a 49 year old Union Ironworker who has numerous interests. Currently I am close to receiving my AAS in Network Administration in Security and am seeking a career change over to the IT field. I love to cook, love my wife and family, and love to live life as fully as I am able to and I try to reflect that in my writings here. Hopefully you will be able to take something from what I place here and put it to good use. Please feel free to comment on anything you wish to here, tell your friends about this website and come back for me. May the Lord God bless and keep you.

Finally in Florida! Today’s schedule consists of going to the Tampa Electric Manatee Viewing Area in Apollo Beach, FL. Jean and I have been here numerous times with my dad and we have seen manatees most of those times. This year was no different even though we were there at a late time for the manatees to be there (they travel into the gulf once the water in the gulf warms to the high 60′s/low 70′s). It was raining slightly and it made the visit even more interesting but did not dampen the spirits of the five of us that went (Jean, Mike, Charlie, Laura and myself). We did have a nice surprise though as not only did we get to see manatees

but also we were able to observe tarpons, snook, and even some dolphins.
