I'm 53, live in State of Pennsylvania in the United States. Live with my girlfriend Mindy on the side of a very large hill in the woods. Lots of animals as neighbors, they are more interesting that most humans. I swear the chimpmunks and squirrels move acorns around like pawns. I refuse to use engines. I prefer to win or lose on my own.
