We live in upstate NY, in the foothills of the Adirondacks.  I'm married, with two children, two step-daughters, and two grandkids.  My son and daughter live just down the street from me, and one of my stepdaughters lives just a few minutes away.  My other stepdaughter just relocated to Texas with her boyfriend, as he is a minor-league hockey player and was signed there.  My mom and sister also live close by.  My sister also sells on ebay.  She sells under wildnbluefarm, so be sure to check her listings out!

     On a sad note, we lost my dad a year ago to cancer.  He was formerly a career firefighter, and was a well-respected and loved man.  He is deeply missed by all who knew him.  His passing has left an immeasurable void in my life.

     I'm a HUGE Steve Earle fan, and really enjoy everything he's put out.  He's true to himself, his music, and his fans.  He is controversial, unapologetic, and as down-to-earth and honest as they come.  He is a true artist, in the sense that he writes his own material and performs it his way, which I find refreshing in today's music scene.  I finally got to see him and his wife, Allison Moorer, when they performed at The Egg in Albany recently.  It was a fantastic show!
