GolfI love to golf, though I don’t get to do it much anymore. I have golfed in some amazing places; Germany, Austria, Switzerland . . .

The view was so breathtaking that I paid less attention to the golf ball.

These are shots taken from the golf course.

We met Ray Stevens in person back stage after his concert at the Alabama Theater in Myrtle Beach SC on 19 Sep 2009. Ray has been a country and pop music performer and comedian since 1958. Some of his hit songs include “The Streak,” “Mississippi Squirrel Revival,” “Guitarzan,” and “It’s Me Again Margret.”

Greatest Thrill

We were invited back stage because Ray’s background vocalist wanted to prove to Ray that he still had a young audience. In fact, my kids were the youngest there. We had to step over and around oxygen tanks, motor chairs, hundreds of canes, and a personal defibrillator to make it back stage. Plus it was a thank you for my military service.

Ray Stevens is in the middle.

Favorites

I consider all three films to be one movie as they were all filmed at once but released over three years.

This book has it all. Romance, intrigue, history, battle.

One-Word Description

• Confident (according to my wife).• I know who I am.• I know what my purpose is in life

• To praise God and share His Gospel.• To become a teacher and serve in His greater plan.

• I am not here to impress anyone but God and those I care about.• I understand my limitations and know how to seek help when I

need it (except asking directions . . . I’m still a guy).

Dream Job – MusicianI am a drummer who plays guitar and bass. My dream job would be to tour around the world as a professional drummer, perhaps for Ray Stevens.

This was my drum set until I had to sell them in 2008.
