I live in Wentzville as a single dad.  I have 2 children and a dog, a border collie named Isobel.  I've been working as a Respiratory Therapist since 1995.  Currently, I am a supervisor in respiratory therapy in a St. Louis County hospital. 
I grew up on a small farm in Crawford County, Missouri.  It has been awarded a Missouri Century Farm designation. My parents still farm to this day. I have always enjoyed writing.  I penned poetry when I was a young lad, not so much lately.  Lately I have wanted to do more than just leave my thoughts on paper.  I stumbled across Wentzville Patch and they have graciously given me the chance to blog for them.
