In June of 2000 I retired from teaching (33 years 1967 to 2000) at Meramec College in St. Louis, Missouri so that I could move to Pelican Bay Florida. I am currently a Professor Emeritus of Sociology and Anthropology at Meramec College.

I am interested in the internet and I have put together several different web sites. If you would like to visit some of my other web sites I have put links to some of my other web sites lower in this page. I am also interested in photography. I like to take photographs of nature. I am also interested in digital still and video photography. Recently I have quit doing film photography and currently only do digital. When I lived in Missouri I was involved in the study and exploration of caves. I am also interested in Astronomy. Currently I am a volunteer at The Conservancy of Southwest Florida. I was named Volunteer of the month in July 2003 (The conservancy has over 700 volunteers). I lead Nature Walks in Pelican Bay on Wednesday at 9:00am. from December to April. In Octobrer of 2005 I completed the Florida Master Naturalist course in Coastal Sustems of the University of Florida. I am the Chairperson of the Pelican Bay Beach Advisory Group. I am also a volunteer at the Caribbean Gardens also known as the Naples Zoo. I take visitors on a botanical tour of the Gardens on Thursdays at 12:00 pm.
