Welcome!

Instructions tell me to start by introducing myself.  I'm a 58 year old former Jr. High school teacher living in North Ga.  originally from southwestern Pa.  I spent, looking back on it. 23 wonderful years teaching,Science mostly Earth & Space & coaching,wrestling,track & field, & Cross Country  in a junior high school in western Pa. Thanks to a wonderful staff & student body
  Then at 43 I began to have physical problems. While I was in collage my parents both died (they were each 62) ,one from Cancer the other heart .
So of course I had to get Cancer & a stroke to follow suite.  However medicine has improved since the 60's.
  God has  permitted me to have a wonderful wife & daughter along with a large number of wonderful friends in my life. God has truly blessed me.  I enjoy chess on line largely because of the people I've meet. I also enjoy daily exercise , along with taking pictures & will try to show some on this site.
