Allow me to briefly tell you about myself. Lance
(Americanized version) grew up in upstate New York, near
Vermont and Massachusetts in the King's former colony. A
mountainside of my own, horses to ride, education in a one-
room country schoolhouse and member of the local volunteer
fire department shaped my sense of connectiveness to the
forests, mountains, animals and Mother Earth.
My time of passage lead me to the University of
Minnesota, assisted by a US Navy scholarship. I liked getting
some things behind me so I would be free to "get on with it". So,
I graduated on a Thursday, commissioned Friday and got
married on Saturday and in Pensacola, Florida for flight training
by the following Wednesday.
The sense of connectiveness to the sea, with all it's magnificent
beauty, isolation, terror and maturing, occurred during a
decade of Navy sea tours. Christmas '68, aboard Yorktown in
mid-Pacific, was awe-inspiring as a part of Apollo 8 recovery.
Oriskany, Ranger and Hancock followed. The latter to evacuate
Cambodia and Saigon.
Civilian endeavors as a salesman and truck driver followed. Hi
ho, hi ho, it then was back to school I was to go. As an
accountant from San Jose State, I served in the corporate arena,
but bailed out, before becoming a plastic clone. I am now,
happily self-employed.
I and my lovely wife Kythera like
Steampunk conventions (thus the
phoito of us…she dessigned the
hats/outfits!). I also belong to
Masons and am the Temple
Treasurer.
Tour my castle- my interests are varied and I hope you may find
something of value to take with you. Spirituality, arts,
philosophy are the major themes.
Welcome!
