A little about me

I guess I should start my Blog by telling about myself.

I live alone with my dogs (BTW - the title of my blog page is named after one of them), but visit family and friends as often as I am able. I live close to 9000 feet in the Colorado Rockies outside of any town, but near Cripple Creek where I manage a casino - no I won't tell you which one.

I also do volunteer work through the Colorado Mounted Rangers, a volunteer public service organization that assists Colorado Communites, Law Enforcement Agencies, Fire Departments and Search and Rescue organizations. The Rangers have a proud history going back to before Colorado was even a state - that's over 150 years! But please note - we only assist those organizations in ways they can best utlilize us, we don't replace the valuable functions they provide. Some people have made that mistake in the past of assuming we want to replace them.

I enjoy anything to do with the outdoors. I also like to write - both stories and poetry - but am only an amatuer. I have no compulsion to want to write professionally. I also enjoy drawing and painting. Unless I get a scanner, you wont see any of my artwork on here though.

I may rant and rave on here from time to time, depending on what idiocy is on the news. Can't stand all the B.S. coverage that the media gives drop outs that just happen to be famous (i.e. directors, actors, singers) they are not experts and should not be quoted as such. I could also care less what they did this week in the tabloids or on CNN.

That's about it for now.
