Treasured Pasts

Treasured Pasts has been a trademark for me since I began making jewelry many years ago. Now I use my hobbies of Metal Detecting, fossil and gemstone collecting, and traveling to speak with groups and now on the internet about my travels, trying to pepper them with some humor and a few witticisms. 

After the military, my family settled in Roswell New Mexico where we had a lot of family history. My great grandfather homesteaded close to there and there is even a Lake Pritchard on some maps. Too bad it only has water after a heavy rain. Oh well. I met my wife of 37 years there and we have raised three kids and enjoyed our lives in New Mexico and 25 years in Colorado.

 So my profile is that of a avid traveler who loves good food, good restaurants, good recipes, and a splash of humor spread throughout.
