For many years I have had interest in, and eventually hobby-taught on subjects like Urban and Wilderness Survival, Solar Cooking, Hay Box Cooking, Food and Provisions Storage, Map/Compass/GPS Use, Man-tracking for Sheriff offices doing Search and Rescue work, Dutch Oven Cooking, Emergency Sanitation and Hygiene Procedures, Unconventional Food Sources, Wildcrafting for Food and Herbals, along with many more subjects.

I have lived in Germany, Viet Nam, California, Arkansas, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Montana, Washington, Louisiana, Tennessee, and Idaho.  Leslie and I have been married for 13 years and are presently retired.

While I enjoy sharing what I think I know with interested others, I also enjoy learning from others with knowledge and experience.
