Well, I'm retired. Put myself out to pasture. Sold my businesses, and my home in Omaha and headed for Mexico. I was going to a place called Real de Catorce (Road #14). Strange name for a town. Never been there, but I figured it would take most of the rest of my life to paint everyone in that town, including the church and church mouse. However, I stopped off in Tulsa to see a girl I had dated back in the mid '50's. I made it to Mexico, but kept coming back to Tulsa. We got married a couple of years ago.
So, I have plenty of time to go hang out at the library. We live on 5 acres, keep a few hereford calves, and have a bass pond 200 yards behind the house. I had my faithful killin' dog, Spike, (a blond peekapoo) but he passed a few months ago. We eat fresh bass, fried taters, and watch the sun go down.
Right now, I'm painting a couple more soldiers who died in the Iraq conflict for a project called Faces of the Fallen. Makes me realize how good life is.
