Born in Chicago, raised in Gary, Indiana until about 9 years old. Lived in Durant, Mississippi for two years before moving to Kenner, Louisiana. Graduated from high school there, went into the Air Force and aimed for my first duty station on the east coast. Unfortunately, they overshot and I ended up in Japan! Lived there 7+ years, met my wife there and daughter was born there. Got out of the Air Force there and the wife got stationed at the Pentagon. Lived in DC, Manassas, Virginia, Woodbridge, Virginia, and Germantown, Maryland. Moved to Wichita Falls, Texas then Carrollton, Texas then a little town with a funny name in the northwest corner of Kaufman County Texas where we are today. In this entire span of time I've visited Honduras, Mexico, Okinawa, and Korea. For all the travelling I've done I've got a few more states to go before I cover them all.
