Originally from NY. Live on a dead-end road on the beautiful Palouse. Work in small hospital half-time as Medical-Surgical nurse and half-time attempting support our informatics system. History of bicycle touring and backpacking camping. Very much looking forward to not sleeping on the ground and not attempting embrace the cold while awaiting my first cup of coffee in the morning - as well as sharing the same with old friends who have weathered it with me, and new.
