| Bio: |   I'm an artist (photography and mixed-media), a physician's wife, a dog wrangler, and I write a little bit too. I'm earthy, a bit of a loose cannon, eclectic, insatiably curious, iconoclastic, definitely a free spirit, a tad shy, a hermit by nature, and I don't suffer fools gladly. As with a lot of things, all the really good stuff is 'Friends Only', but I'm always happy to add interesting new people. - Friedrich Nietzsche - Dr. Laurence J. Peter. No matter how pure their motives, they thereby throw sand into the machinery that does not work too well at best." - Robert A.
