I ran my own business called Odd Jobs Unlimited for 5 years doing
almost everything imaginable around a lot of homes. I just
finished building our own home; one nail at a time. I have done
freelance writing and have been published in such varied
magazines as The Mother Earth News and Computer Edge Magazine.
My background also includes making my living as a business
machine repairman, a framing carpenter, doing concrete work, taxi
driver, change person in a Reno casino, computer
operator/programmer, painter, truck driver and as the head of
Maintenance for a circuit board manufacturer (amongst other
things). I also spent the last 14 years working for an irrigation
district as a ditch rider and water master.
I guess you could call me a jack-of-all-trades.
