My Hobbies and Interests
I've
been writing poems since 1966 and to date have written at least 500. A
few have been published in college literary magazines, in local and
national poetry
magazines, and at a few web sites. I've won a few prizes for my poems,
but that is all and nothing more. Poetry, for me, is two-fold: the joy
of expression and the necessity of communication.

My
wife and I grow 3 varieties of tomatoes, especially plum (Roma)
tomatoes which we use for sauce. We usually make 24 to 48
quarts of
sauce, which we freeze. It's so nice to taste summer in sauce
you have
in February.
(The woman in the picture is not my wife. She is
enjoying "Tomatina" in Bunol, Spain.) |

Collecting
frogs (not live
ones, but representations):
We
have a couple of hundred frogs: Wood, glass, all types of
composition
and styles, from antique to modern to whimsical and goofy. If

Lionel
model trains: I specialize in Lionel trains and accesories
from the
1950s. I recently built a 4'x8' train board in my rec room.
