I'm strictly a hobbyist
astronomer. I describe myself as a beginner since 1962. I've
watched the sky since then, though not with the dedication I
admire in some people in RAC. I have simple equipment and I live
in the woods. That means I observe bright objects overhead. Most
of my time goes into family. I'm happy that my family spends
some time observing with me, too! I get out most nights for a
few minutes of naked eye or binocular astronomy, and get the
telescope out a couple nights a month. My astronomical slogan
is "No matter where you look, there's something pretty up
there."
Projects I've worked on:
My children have been Scouts since 1987.
I am currently a merit badge counselor for Mattaponi District,
National Capital Area Council, Boy Scouts of America.
