Things I enjoy include organic gardening, cross-country and downhill skiing, camping and reading. I'm learning to press flowers and have done some flower pounding also, transferring fresh flowers to fabric.
I'm a retired physical therapist, UConn '65, having worked in rehab, schools, and home health.
I volunteer at the local hospital at the information desk two half days a week, and coach reading and math at an elementary school one short morning a week.
I enjoy cooking from my variety of organically home grown vegetables and flowers.
