I have been a passionate photographer for most of my life, and want to share that here on eBay. I also love antique stores, garage sales, thrift stores, all the places you can browse for that great find. I have been here on eBay since 2000, and have had a great time. I've found almost every person here to be honest and reliable, and my goal has and will always be to be honest, fun, and reliable in return.

I live in San Juan Capistrano, CA, just a few miles from the ocean. I've lived near the ocean all my life, and can't imagine not being close. I also love the mountains, and spend tons of time hiking with my camera, looking for that perfect shot. I even get 'em sometimes! :-) Perfection would be living in the woods by the ocean. That's the definition of the perfect place to live for me.

I'm lucky enough to have married just the right woman, and we have 21 years together. Nothing is more important than family, not even a killer tuna run right off the coast. :-) I'm an avid gardener, both decorative and vegetables. My two best pals are sleeping here while I write, my dogs Sophie and Crystal. It's not often that they're more than a few feet away from me. We also have two parrots, four cats, fish, and a lizard that seems to be immortal. We firmly believe that things to sit and sleep on are called FURniture for a reason. :-)

My favorite saying is "Laughter may not make the journey any shorter, but it sure does lighten the load". Be honorable, be responsible, volunteer in your community, do you duty, but don't forget to have fun. :-)
