This is my userpage and it is lame. But I thought that playing here would be good wiki practice.

Why 'terrapin'?

The answer is threefold. First, I am a long-time fan fo the Grateful Dead [Flash warning]. Second, I attended (and graduated from) the University of Maryland whose mascot is the terrapin. Lastly, I have always dug turtles. i think they're interesting creatures.

Where?

Currently living in cute and gorgeous Tunbridge, VT and loving it!

Why?

My wife and I decided to leave the rat race of Washington, DC for a quieter existence where we could grow some of our own food, and enjoy each other's company. We bought a house on 10 mostly-wooded acres in Tunbridge, VT in the spring of 2006.

Any More?

More about me can be found on the blog my wife and I share, terrapin gardens, or our food blog.
