Here is a picture of me taken at the Tulip fields in La Conner, WA., April 2005
The rest of the family!
I am a general Internist in private practice in Snohomish, a town of about 9,000 in the Puget Sound region of Western Washington state. I live just outside town with my 2 children, ages 21 and 16 at this writing, and my beautiful and multi-talented spouse Paula. I have been an active amateur astronomer for about 15 years, and also enjoy paleontology, classical and early music, North Indian classical music, and of course biking, hiking and fishing. And Maine Coon cats!
