Hello, I am happy to have found Swap-Bot and look forward to making friends, maybe some penpal friends, and have a good time. Please pardon while I work on my profile page. :0)

I am male, in my late 50s, and have lived in Texas most of my life (I lived in Tennessee for four years after graduating high school). Some consider me an old-spirit preferring things related to times long ago which probably explains why I like historical/vintage ephemera and memorabilia.

I love nature and wish that I had camped more, but do like to visit parks; especially those with mountains, lakes, and trees. If it is a governmental protected heritage site; I probably want to visit it.

I love art and can spend hours in a good museum. My favorite artist include Vincent Van Gogh, Claud Monet, Rembrandt, Picasso, El Greco, Renoir, Hudson River School... I could go on, and on...

Favorite Themes: Renaissance, Edwardian, Victorian, Cottagecore, Oriental, Japanese, Chinoiserie, Wizards, Enchantment, Mystical Nature, Forrest, Hills, Mountains, Lakes, Streams I do like things with bees, dragonflies, thistles, hares, bunnies, wildflowers or English garden stuff.

Recently, I have been enjoying kawaii and sanrio themed items. My favorite cartoon character will always be Snoopy.

Favorite Authors: Anne Rice, Robert Jordan, Brandon Sanderson, Clive Barker, John Grisham, Toni Morrison, C.S. Lewis
