I was born and raised in Central Wyoming on a cattle and sheep ranch. I spent 15+ years there as a scoutmaster and have hiked a good deal of the state. I have always been a shutterbug. I left Wyoming in 1985 and lived a year in Salt Lake City, before moving to DFW, Texas. After 10 years there we moved to the lower Hudson Valley of New York where we have been for over 20 years now. For most of that time I have commuted some 2+ hours each way to Manhattan for work, but now mostly work from home.
I started out as a Cannon guy with an AE-1 around 1975. I advanced through several bodies and ended with a T70. Life got in the way for a few years and then my wife bout me a Nikon D40 for Christmas 2007. The bug was back. For Christmas 2014 I bought myself an upgrade to the D7100. I have added some better lenses to my collection and continue to enjoy what I do.

Welcome home, Grissler. I thought I'd lived in a variety of environs but your experience really has given you a look at how different Americans live! Glad to have you as a Hogger.

Yep, I have been around. Not only where I lived, but as head of design and construction for many retailers I have built in all the states and a lot of the world. Now I use my talent and experience to help home owners and small retailers fulfill their dreams.

Welcome to the forum...I'm a little north in Kingston. The Hudson Valley area is full of wonderful places to photograph. Day trips can take you to some incredible sites, historical, beautiful landscapes, people watching and many, many other interesting off the beaten path finds. Enjoy not only the forum, but the area.
