The following is a little biographical information, much of which was compiled by Shelly DeGolyer from my Facebook page.
This is how I described myself on Etsy, some time ago. It's fairly comprehensive.
ABOUT ME
Folks think I don’t do much 'cause I’m retired.
Well, why am I never, ever bored? Maybe it’s
because I’m a widower, father and a cat valet;
tenor, cantor, chorister, a harmonica player;
composer; photographer and philosopher;
book-seller & antiques dealer; dreamer;
kayaker, canoeist and bicyclist; once a
Ph.D. biologist, still a naturalist, but
now more often a lyricist, satirist
or humorist; Transcendentalist
and a Catholic Buddhist (vice-
versa, I suppose); now semi-
professional artist; rather
prolific writer of poetry
and a little less prose.
My occupation, in a
word, is ‘Pilgrim’,
certainly not a
‘retiree’ who
has little or
nothing to
do. Nope.
Bored?
Never,
ever.
Not
me

SCOOTING in style
It's great in airports
but it's suicidal on stairs
The local supermarket said I couldn't ride it in the store.
So I wrote a letter that began with "In accordance with the AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT..."
Now I hang a shopping basket on the handlebars.
