Hello all. I now live in a very private location in central Oregon. My wife
and I came to Oregon in 2008 when eleven white buffalo were placed in the
care of the Sacred World Peace Alliance, which is a no-profit 501c3 my wife
Cynthia had founded. I now get up every day and head out to the pens on our
42 acre badlands ranch and feed and water the 14 white and 3 brown buffalo
that live here. We had three white buffalo babies born here on our ranch
this year, which is quite likely a first on this planet. I feel very honored
to be here caring for this unique and wonderful herd. The buffalo can be
seen at :

Do make a donation to the cause of supporting these majestic animals if you
can. We are attempting to create a sanctuary for these animals that will
outlive us. We are a no-kill location, which is quite rare in the bison's
world.
I still write and perform music, and have friends and clients that seek my
recording services . I have a very comfortable recording studio that I
recently remodeled nearby with a 32 track Protools system, and a collection
of guitars, basses, keyboards, microphones, and other tools I have collected
over the four decades that I have spent in the music and entertainment
industry. I have produced a number of artists and CD's in the last several
years, but I have not released a solo recording for quite a while. I am in
the process of putting up the best of my musical history and catalog online
and available to the public, and I have a solo album of new material nearly
finished. Surprisingly I do feel it to be relevant, although I may be
biased.
In closing, my love goes out to all kind hearts.
