Bio

Outdoors all my life. Burned at the NJ beach and RI shore many times as a teen and young adult. Out in boats a lot, now a rower. Current job, watershed educator and photographer, is largely outdoors. Love it. Would rather have melanoma and a life outdoors than have stayed inside for 60+ years. At least, so far. Have not gotten to the bad part yet. Glad I live in Philadelphia where there are so many good doctors.
