About

Volunteering to help our community’s vulnerable is my primary priority. Next, it’s the environment. If you think about it, these two are closely linked. Thirdly, I enjoy helping build homes for those with compromised living security. Yet another connected cause. Lastly, I occasionally look to break from these three causes to mix things up, learn something new, and perhaps find some not-so-obvious connections between any and all causes. It can’t hurt — connections can be overlooked…

    Event Set Up: Yoga for Pease

    Lots of heavy lifting — literally! We were moving sandbags and then helped vendors unload their vehicles. Nice way to start the morning.

    Gazelle Foundation Spring For The Water Gala 2026

    There was some cleanup, but mostly just waiting. I want to help more towards helping this cause succeed! It is a success, however.

    Gazelle Foundation Spring For The Water Gala 2026

    If I’m being completely honest, then I must admit that I didn’t see how I added much value to this cause. I did all I could, which wasn’t much. And then to top it all off, I ate one of the meals. When you feel as though you've taken more than you’ve given, you ask yourself, “why?” I hope my contribution was enough to help this cause in any positive way possible.

    Invasive Plants Removal Workday at The Stenis tract

    Because this area is well-shaded, it is nice to work here this late in the season, or when it is becoming too hot to really put effort into ripping these dang Nandina outta the ground! YMMV.
