My Background

I was fortunate to have loving parents.  The oldest of eight children I grew up fast.  Even though when we were kids we did not always get along we are much closer as adults.  I have five grown children of my own and now have four beautiful grandchildren with another one due in January of 2005.  When I first talked about getting a motorcycle my mother just shook her head.  My younger sister had gone through a stage of riding as well as one of my brothers.  So when the dress wearing, need to have makeup on, and my nails done woman started to ride her own bike my family was just a little surprised.

By the way if you are looking for someone that is willing to work hard, is dependable and works well without supervision then maybe you should have a look at my  resume.

My Interests

I have already told you one of my main interests and that is motorcycles.  I also have other hobbies like woodworking . One of our favorite shows is David Marks Woodworks which is available on DYI .  When we have a rain day or during the winter time I also do scrollsaw work as well as making things on the lathe. 

My Personal Records

If you would like to see the on-line version of a grandmothers brag book I think you will enjoy it.
I also would like to share with you some of our favorite woodworking projects if you have some of your own please feel free to send us pictures.

Links to My Favorite Sites

Another way to really get to know someone - especially someone who spends
as much time on the Internet as I do - is to learn their favorite sites:

Harley Davidson

Sturgis - Web Cams

Legacy Ornamental Mill - Check out the Gallery

David Marks - Homepage

There are many other websites that offer information on motorcycles and woodworking but these are the ultimate to me.  If you know of some that I should take a look at feel free to e-mail at the address below.
