“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step” – Lao – Tzu
I have had several careers during my journey. When I was a child, my brothers and I would seize every opportunity to spend some time in the fields and woods near our house. We went fishing whenever we could. We loved being outdoors. So I think it’s only natural (pun intended) that I went to college at the University of Miami and got a BS in Biology, thus becoming a biologist, an ecologist, and a naturalist. After graduating college, I worked as an ecologist for many years in the ’70s and ’80s.
