I'm an iconoclastic lifelong student. At my age, I've discovered that I don't know everything, at least not yet. I'm an environmental activist, with an acute interest in saving what is left of the Coast Redwoods from the chain saw. I'm a Reformed Druid, and a member of both the Reformed Druids of North America and the Reformed Druids of Gaia (RDG). I am currently serving as Senior Scribe for the RDG, and I am the Patriarch of the Order of the Mithril Star. I'm very happily married to the Archdruid of our local Grove, Cylch Cerddwyr Rhwng y Bydoedd Grove (which is also the Mother Grove of RDG). My wife and I are also both Reiki Masters. We have two cats, Gwyddion and Kundun. I have three sons, Joshua, Jordan and Jesse, and three wonderful daughters in law, Aisha, Nikki and Lyndsey. I also have grandchildren: Isaiah, Jalen, Mia and Cam. Follow me on Twitter: @redwoodeagle, or Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=logo#/redwood.eagle?v=wall&ref=profile
