| Me and my youngest daughter Sue (aka Mrs. Bumbles) |
"Hi Mom! God bless you and thank you for putting up with me for so many years. My wife, kids and I love you."
I am father and husband, technical writer, and a graduate of OU, OSU, and UCO (except it was CSU then). I have a keen interest in Oklahoma History, American Literature, American History, and other stuff. But most of all I enjoy the company of my wife and kids, who are the loves of my life and keep me young and happy.
The purpose of this site is to share pics with my family and friends, post bits of fiction I sometimes write, and use it for whatever else comes to mind.
