   I want to begin this blog entry...yeah I know it's been a long time since I last wrote; be that as it may, allow me to continue.
   As I was saying, it has been a long time but I want to begin with a shout out to all the great Hillsborough County elementary teachers I met last week during their science  teacher preparation summer workshop. You certainly made me feel welcomed and I thank you for that warm reception. I am forever grateful -to all of you- for giving me the opportunity to introduce my Cockroach of Meadowfield trilogy to you. And Larry P., I have you to thank for making this happen!

  If all goes well and 'the creek don't rise', I hope to be visiting your classes this coming school year;  helping you coordinate and implement, not only my first book in the trilogy (A Pilgrimage of Pests), but the lesson plan ideas and STEAM based activities that correspond with it. I can't wait to work with your students and introduce them to my bug-fellows!

    As a kid growing up on Florida's Ft.Myers Beach, I was either out exploring the beach, honing my baseball skills in the driveway, or at my desk writing stories and cartooning.  After teaching high school biology for 36 years here in Tampa, I now enjoy retirement with my wife Diane and our constant canine companion, Layla.
