House &
gardens
My house is a Victorian
stick-style, and includes
additions, the gardenhouse, Japanese lanterns, features,
and history. I am also restoring a
Craftsman-style bungalow.
In the garden there are
no hours, only seasons.

Seeker/travels:
I have circumnavigated the world
once, and journeyed to all of the continents except
"the cold one."
I began my travels with the Peace Corps of the USA.
I was a small city boy who had not traveled before.
My philosophy about travel is that I
try to study the language of an area/country before
visiting,and that I visit more than "several days" in
one location to get a sense of place, to know the
people, that they may also get to know me.
Travel is a reciprocating experience.

"Basically, in my very flawed and human
way, I want to be a force for love in the world.
I want to let go of and grow beyond everything that constrains me from
that intention"
Nina Rothschild Utne, Chair and CEO,
Utne Reader.
"Religious values motivate love,
compassion, humility, justice and liberty for all people;
religious beliefs and practices motivate hatred, cruelty, division,
arrogance, injustice and oppression of others."
Reverend Kenneth Carder, United
Methodist Bishop, State of Mississippi
Currently director of Duke
University Divinity School’s Center of Excellence in Ministry
"But those
who have been under the shadow, who have gone
down at last to elemental things, will have
a wider charity."
H. G. Wells
War of the Worlds, Book 2
"Queers, to whom normal marriage and
parenthood are forbidden, are fools if they do not deliberately look for

which require collaboration, and the right person with whom to
collaborate."
