I was borne in South Dakota, joined the Army National Guard at 19, then the regular Army, went to Europe and was station in Alaska. Finally I was injured and discharged from service, but stayed in Alaska. Then I was offered a job as a DoD civilian. I have worked for the Army for 32 years now. When I retire it will be 35.5 years. And all of that is much more history than I have shared with anyone.

So when I say I am doing a Safari in three years, I really mean I'm going. I have been given two Safari packages in the past 20 years, but never made time to go.

I love my Christiansen 300 WSM.
I do not have a single piece gear I cannot live without, but all of these items do make life easier.

Kodiak Island is magical, I thoroughly enjoyed hunting the hill country in Texas, and I love the plains of the Dakotas
My other interests
I also trap, and have one of the very few registered trap cabins in Alaska. I like to prospect for gold as well.
