  • Description

    Description

    From the Midwest USA originally now living in Newton MA, a near suburb of Boston. Retired. Some mobility issues due to a neurological disease but overall in pretty good health. Educated. Good to very good cook. (Bragging slightly)
    Reader of everything from serious to trash fiction. Environmental and creative non fiction. Pet lover. I have a dog.
    Not religious. On and on and on!!!!! I have travelled the world even to some of the forbidden places like Cuba. I am a father and on most days that is pretty great. As I have repeatedly told my family and friends...I can do two things well: cook and catch a baseball!!!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I live at the epicenter of the educational and medical world. There are roughly 62 colleges and universities in the greater Boston area. Three medical schools. More hospitals that I can count. A Major League Baseball team. One of the world's greatest art museums. The BSO is well the BSO. Music schools. And, in case I forget, an ocean a few miles away.

    Help

    I live in an old old house. It is a condominium and I have the first floor. There is always some help needed. Naturally there is gardening help...planting designing and maintaining beds that are eco friendly and bird and butterfly and bee havens. I was born with dual competing problems. Lack of organization and the desire to be neat.
