The New Stuff Area

This area is for any new and late-breaking news. If I have any huuuuge information such as upcoming trips, etc. it will be located here.

In June 2019 I went to Portersville, PA to get two days of chainsaw training.  Now I can do some chainsaw work for Team Rubicon.  In  December 2018 and February 2019 I went to Panama City, FL area to do some disaster relief work with Team Rubicon.  In May 2019 I traveled to Omaha, NE and worked for the week in Pacific Junction, Iowa.  The flooding was really bad there. 

Team Rubicon

This site provides information on various things I have done that family, friends, and former co-workers seem to find interesting.  I have been inundating everyone with numerous large emails and needed to stop the insanity.  So, I created this web site to eliminate clogging up everyones email box.  Now I can send a short email, “Hey, I did something, if you are interested, feel free to check out my web page.”  

This website is the result…enjoy!
