Where to start? Well I was born in Medicinehat Alberta Canada along time ago. Raised on a Ranch in the south east cornor of Alberta at aplace called Wild Horse. Took 3 years coraspondance then was shipped off to BORDING SCHOOL on Vancouver Island for about 7 years. Then my father got a wild hair across his ass and decided to start a zoo just outside Nashville Tenn. The ZOO was called the Tennessee Game Farm in Joelton. We moved lock stock and barrel to Joelton in 1971 and after about 1 1/2 years of back breaking labour clearing fence lines and laying out animal pens,then putting up miles and miles of chain link. We had the animals shipped in and opened the zoo. I would go to school at Cheatem county central all day then come home and help run the zoo and after closing to the public we then had to feed all the creatures Great and small as creatures don't take holidays and must be fed and cleaned up after 24/7/365.Great life EH. At about 18 I struck out on my own and had a very diverse life. Did construction,Demolition,bar tending/floor waiting,Run 5 years with the carnival circut,Did some rodeo riding, drove truck for a couple years,took a sabadical backpacking thru the Rockies/Serria nevada Mnts. Then returned to the Zoo to help out when brother in law screwed up and cost a shit load of money to bail out of trouble in europe with his seal show. This is where I met my wife who came to vist a mutual friend,They let me out of the cage to play with her and In 1983 I married her years later our daughter was born,3 months early and sicker than any thing I had ever seen. Spent 6 VERRRRY long months in Vandy Neonatle unit, then brought her home on oxegen for about another 6 months and in the first 7 years of her life about18 major surgeries.We decided not to have any more natural children so we decided to adopt a couple kids. There are no normal children avalable to adopt,only Special needs children. So to me a child is a child so we took in 2 of these special children.Phillip is a high function Downs child who was not wanted and had been abused. Starr was a beautiful little girl who was abandon at the Hospital by her mother.(Mom abused Alcohole cocain and tabbacco during pregnancy and came in drunk 3 months early popped the kid out and left the hospital) Starr has an unbalievable voice and can play piano/key board by ear. She wants to be a country singer in the worst way.
