Let’s start with the obvious.  One Eye, the name chosen by me when I joined FCF.  FCF is the Frontiers Camping Fellowship which is a group of men and boys who have shown exceptional camping skills in the Royal Rangers.  Royal Rangers is a mentoring program to boys which started with the Assemblies of God in 1962 when older boys were not being retained in the church.  FCF grew out of it as a natural progression for adventure, achievement and fun.  The goal is to keep alive the spirit of the fur trade era where men lived off the land and provided for themselves.  We are NOT conspiracy “theorists“, but some of the same skills are learned.  Oh, I am blind in my right eye, thus the name.  Not very politically correct!

More importantly, I am a husband, father, grandfather and foster grandfather.  If you want to know what love is, just watch kids when they give you a hug and squeeze your neck for all they are worth, or you hear the granddaughter call you Grand Pop for the first time.  You will melt.

I have worked at my current job since 1987 and still enjoy the challenge.

Everything else is, well, just stuff you will have to learn as we go.  Hang in there, this could be a wild ride.
