About:
In many respects life is much like the ebb and flow of the ocean waves on a sandy beach. Always there, always changing and always refreshing.<br /><br />I have ridden the tide of life from an early age. Raised in Virginia Beach, my sister and I spent our childhood boating on the Lynnhaven River and crabbing from the dock in our backyard. At that young age it was difficult to realize a time for reflection and meditation. This peaceful childhood would shape me, and become a formative part of my life.<br /><br />At the end of each school year, we packed up and moved to our oceanfront cottage at Nags Head on the Outer Banks of North Carolina for the summer. There my days began in the midst of Mother Nature's watercolor sunrise over the Atlantic, and ended beneath a blanket of stars highlighted by the moon's cast of brilliant diamonds upon the sea. There is nothing quite as wonderful as the smell of salt water and the feel of ocean spray. <br /><br />After attending college in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, I married and settled with my family in Richmond and raised my sons, Kyle and Chandler. I built a career diversified in real estate, and when my boys recently set out to begin their own lives, I relocated to the Gulf Coast of Florida with my partner Errol, once again drawn by the tides that have punctuated my existence.<br /><br />Thinking back now…reflecting…it seems that the best years of my life were spent on that deck atop the dune at the 12 milepost in Nags Head, and on the beach that stretched out before me. "My Happy Place", I called it. Strange how life has a tendency to draw a person back to what is good; to what makes life so worth living. <br /><br />Those memories and experiences have brought me here…today. My new Happy Place is right here…Hernando County and the Nature Coast! Just as time changes the shoreline with the constant ebb and flow of waves, life is much the same. Errol, Maggie and I have found a new paradise. When I came here to my new home from Virginia for the first time, Errol and Kyle had created a banner and hung it across the front of the house...it read: "Welcome to Paradise”. I'll be happy to share it with you.
