Quite a bit has changed since I created this site. Some of the things in the text below are long gone, but I want to leave it alone for now. I do still have my dog and we have relocated to South Carolina. Read more about my interests and life and how I might be able to help you!

This web page is a dedicated online portfolio for organizing my writing and activity on the web.  The most recent additions to my web publishing projects may be found below. I am currently a full-time taxi chauffeur in Las Vegas, Nevada where tend to my animals and practice organic gardening. My pet collection includes two cats, a rescued chihuahua-terrier, a guinea pig, and chickens. I love to share tips and stories about all of the above.

I Began Writing On Squidoo

I began writing in February of 2012 where I received several front page awards on Squidoo, a magazine style website for writers on the internet. 

Squidoo sold out to Hubpages in 2014 and my article list went along with it. Search a list containing over 65 articles covering many topics on Hubpages.

Chicken Lil Farms

Chicken Lil Farms is up and running in operations and web access. Come take a tour of our flock and beautiful surroundings in the deserts of Southern Nevada. Last Fall, I was able to step into home ownership and my new venture in raising poultry. At this time, eggs are available. Eggs for cooking and hatching are collected daily from the barnyard hybrids and Coturnix Quail that inhabit our farm. See the options offered by clicking on the image above or by copying the link below into your web browser.

Gardening is one of my passions when I am not painting or writing. I am currently working on a gardening journal to be released soon. You may find additional gardening articles on my Hubpages profile link

Preparedness, Food Storage, and Preppertalk

survival recovery logo
Survival Recovery is a website dedicated to the essentials of preparedness and survival. 

Prepping a family for emergencies is more than getting ready to evacuate a home. It is about being prepared for any type of disaster, not just weather crisis or major calamity. It is a way of life that includes many activities that encompass self-sufficient living. Saving money, food, and essentials towards tough times is part of that lifestyle.

I have created a few rough videos for demonstrating the topics I write about and the lifestyle I practice. One of my favorites is the Strawberry Jammin' video.
Every website needs a mailing list and this one is no different or is it?? A monthly email will be sent with updates to the latest activity along with tips about building websites, writing on the internet, and related topics. Honestly, I don't send emails, yet. I don't care for the spammy ones I get. I will send out an update letter now and  then, however.....

Your information is private and will never be sold to a third party. 
Sign into the guest book for an occasional update newsletter via email. Several new titles are on the writing block. Gardening, Southern Nevada Travel and a children's book are in the works. Thank you for visiting!
