Exploring life, nature, and simplicity.
The call of the mountains has been with me for as long as I can remember. My greatest peace has always been found in solitude, surrounded by the wonders of the natural world. For me, the high country has always felt like home — a place where the noise of life fades and clarity begins.
In 2016, I turned a lifelong dream into reality. I left the corporate world behind and found my sanctuary in the majestic beauty of the Sierra Nevada. Building a mountain cabin and embracing a life in harmony with nature and my faith has been the fulfillment of that dream, and it has brought me a deep and lasting contentment.
I retired my career as an engineer and designer in advanced digital communications. I now dedicate my days to writing, cooking, growing things, exploring both my surroundings and my inner self, and learning the traditional ways of living that help me to thrive off-grid.
Join me on this journey of discovery, simplicity, and self-reliance as I embrace the beauty and challenges of seeking peace and solitude with a life that celebrates nature, creation, and man's relationship to it.
This is truly the happiest time of my life.

I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur. Gaming is my achilles heel in that regard.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the below links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there is something I have found to be worthy.
Meet Gerome -The new designated spokes person for this channel. Gerome is not the typical garden variety gnome nor is he a stay at home gnome. Gerome is into art, photography, music, travel and more. He freely speaks his mind. He may not always be politically correct, however it is never his goal to purposely offend anyone. He firmly believes Truth can survive all logical and reasonable debate. Gerome is a skeptic. He believes that Science is only a tool...a method of inquiry ...not a test of "truth". Science seeks to prove a THEORY through controlled and closely monitored repetition. However neither consistency nor apparent correlation of results is actual "proof" of causation. It is merely an indication of the probability of a specific result. Science is NEVER settled. That's why "Scientific conclusions" will always remain theories.... Useful ...sometimes...accurate predictions .. but not necessarily attributable to factors as outlined in the currently accepted theory. Certain things mankind will probably never know or understand. Such matters lie in the domain of God and the realm of faith.
