Hey there, I'm Ray, I live in a log cabin in picturesque eastern Kentucky, on the summit of Laurel mountain(1266ft) at the head of Deadman Branch, ancestral homeplace of my grandfather, who was a fullblooded Piscataway indian. A Michigan/Alaska transplant since 1978, an MSU, MIT alumnus, a collector of vintage electric guitars and various other offbeat junk. I own a small guitar repair shop specializing in custom made guitars. Having lived here this long, I feel comfortable to poke fun at the natives. (see below)
