Thank you for visiting my site and I’m hopeful you’ll find it interesting.  

       

6-inch f/6 Newtonian (below) which is now becoming my favorite telescope, due to the smaller size and weight.   

The following 80mm f/5 refractor was a gift to me by my son, Brad. I enjoy using this telescope when time is limited and for brighter deep-sky objects.

My other hobby: Still riding a bicycle as of current with about 135,000 miles since June 1979. However, it would take me 29 years to log 100,000 miles in October 2009. I continue to ride even to this day, but not as fast or as many miles.

Another interest or hobby of mine for “almost” 50 years (as of 2026) is lifting weights, and for the past 10 years with my wife. Good health is the most important thing you have in life: It’s not money, not your house, not cars or any other tangible thing.

We can only “try our best” to take care of our health by eating a healthy diet combined with regular physical exercise.

A few examples of my pencil sketches as following which were made at the eyepiece without any embellishments or computer enhancements.
