The Tickle Tarantula

From a young age the power of a great story has always had a powerful impact on my life; whether it was my grandmother reading the classics or the Fair Haven Loafers and Liars Club in upstate New York keeping local history alive from the bench in front of a two pump Sinclair gas station. A lifelong passion for volunteering as coach, scout leader, robotics mentor, and historical docent became my outlet for inspiring youth through story telling. Now with my first grandchild on the near horizon it was time to put some of those stories in print.
