I am the widowed father of three sons, two of which still live at home. I have two grandsons, and at this writing, one on the way. I am an artist by training, and a correctional officer by necessity. One has to pay the bills and have medical coverage for one's family. Sometimes dreams have to wait for life to settle down. My kids are my life, and most of what I put here will be about them, because everything in my life is about them. Feel free to stop in, browse and leave any comments. I am not thin skinned or easily insulted, and all feedback is gratefully accepted and considered. Always looking for new friends from whom I can learn new things. I hope I never get too old to learn new things, experience new things, and learn the value of new friends.
