I'm a retired rancher with three grown girls. "Will" is written about my grandfather who homesteaded on the upper Green River in Wyoming. I live within twenty miles of there, and always have. I have a "stable mate" who is also my soul mate. We have five horses and ride a lot., but he is also a pilot and we fly a lot. Our riding consists of cowboying for ranchers, and packtripping in the Wind Rivers. We have a rescued cat who considers us his staff. Photography is also a passion. I dabble in painting for my own pleasure. I have done a lot of traveling and "rving", but I sort of enjoying being home and writing and painting. In the winters we enjoy snowmobiling. My girls and grandchildren are my greatest joy. I am a member of the Green River Valley Cattlemen's Association, Pinedale Chapter # 39 OES, Sublette County Artist Guild, and Mixed Media and a bridge club. I love our bridge club. We have been called the Golden Girls.
