I live in Melville, Saskatchewan; have a wife, two grownup kids, two grandkids, and two cats.
I work for CN (in my 40th year!), finishing off my career as a freight Conductor here in "Rail City." I do custom woodworking, with my own small business, operating out of my garage.
I'm on the National Council of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada (have two telescopes); plus I'm on the production teams of the world famous annual "Observer's Handbook" and the bi-monthly RASC Journal.
For about 15 years, I've been writing a monthly newspaper article for Ducks Unlimited Canada, called "Duck Doings," which is published in about 25 towns and cities in southeastern Saskatchewan.
