I was born in Juneau AK, and lived 7 miles from a glacier. There I fished, and spent tons of time outdoors.
At age 8 I moved to the Southern Oregon Coast; and lived there as a social outcast, considered weird for being into computers and playing D and D. Both of which I inherited from my beloved older brother.
Eventually I moved into the big city (Portland) and learned that I was hardly weird at all...
