Travel, gardening, photography, hiking, art, music and museum aficionado

I have traveled extensively, thanks to my experiences in aviation. The only continent I have not visited is Antarctica. That is on my bucket list. I maintain my serenity through gardening, photography, hiking, art and music. I love museums (big or small) and any interesting architecture from Gaudi to Gehry.
