Jeffrey's Story
Life
I drive a 2005 Hyundai Accent, ride a Canondale XR-400 racing bike, and am the caretaker for four beautiful cats, the other one passed away in Dec. 2009 after a two-year battle with diabetes. I live quite the busy life - exciting at times having spent time in Kuwait, Oman, Iraq in the last couple years; fought a 60,000+ acre wildfire in Oregon in 1996, and have met Presidents Carter, George H.W. Bush, Clinton, George W. Bush; and Vice-Presidents Mondale, Quayle and Cheney. I just finished writing "Muskets and Memories: A Modern Man's Journey though the Civil." Was named the 2009 Print Journalist of the Year for U.S. Air Force Reserve Command.
