With credit to Gary Jennings in his book, Raptor, something he wrote has stuck with me as completely fitting: Mortal, it was you yourself who cast your lot not with Security but with Fortune. Never rejoice overmuch when she leads you to great victories; never repine when she leads you into sad adversity. Remember, mortal, if Fortune ever should stand still, she is no longer Fortune. - Boethius, a General of King Theodoric (ruler of the Gothic Kingdom), in De Consolatione Philosophiae (The Consolation of Philosophy); Roman Year 1279 (526 A.D.)

HPIM0402.jpgAbout Me
When I say that my 'hometown' is worldwide that is because I have spent all of my life working internationally, experienced now in 75 countries, including long-term residence in 15 countries. Doing what? Evaluations of projects funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development. Most recently experienced in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Iraq, Afghanistan and Belarus
Interests:
Retired from international work now I carry on three voluntary activities: As Immediate Past President of First Coast Returned Peace Corps Volunteers, Inc.; As Team Leader of the Financial & Statistical Management Team of the North Florida Regional Chapter of American Red Cross; And as Senior Escort of foreign diplomats and dignitaries with International Visitors Corps of Jacksonville (recent winner of Volunteer of the Year Award). All three activities keep me busyMy Photos (3)
