Elmer's Story
Retired after 38 years as a science teacher and school administrator for Randolph Twp. Schools and West Morris Reg HS (also head wrestling coach).
Traveling, art, and golf are my new passions.
Single. since 1990. Exploring a new lifestyle. Two sons finished college and are off and married with children. My Russian exchange students are married and most have families of their own..
Retired in 1998 and have been traveling the world, volunteering with science and art organizations, volunteering with Red Cross Disaster Services, studying art, entering art shows and exhibitions, learning to play golf, and keeping healthy.
Home for me is still the rural farm area of Long Valley, NJ.. I'm spending more time at my condo at the NJ shore in Sea Isle City, NJ in recent years., I've developed more of an inkling to spend winter in warmer climates- I rent a condo in Gulfport FL during the winter months..
I am thankful to have been blessed with good health, good friends, and a supportive family. I'm always looking for new travel experiences and to make new discoveries. Need a travel partner? I have bag-will travel- US and foreign..
