Maine native in
my 50s (pretty much been here all my life),
I live in Kennebunk, Maine with my wife. Cape
Porpoise is indeed a real place (part of Kennebunkport) and is a
beautiful little fishing village. There
is also a Goat Island off the coast, with a quaint lighthouse too. Oh, and the Shipyard Brewing Company located
within a mile of my home does indeed produce a brew of that name: Goat
Island
Light. In my
professional life I own an advertising agency with
about 38 wonderfully talented people gainfully employed.
We specialize in creating radio and
television ads, with websites and digital thrown in these days. We do okay by ourselves, and have clients
from coast to coast. In my personal
life, I have been happily married for 30+
years. We have three boys, all grown up
and “off the payroll”, as they say. One
works for the Seattle Mariners. All
three either play or played sports on the collegiate level, though not
baseball. We are Red Sox fans. As recently as a decade ago that meant a
self-deprecating joke about long-term suffering and heartache, but
since 2004,
2007, 2013 & 2018, we're pretty much
over that now. I have a full season
ticket plan (81 games) to the Boston Red Sox. If you are ever in Boston
for a
game, or in Maine for a lobster roll, look me up. As far as
DMB goes, it is a great hobby. I do not
belong to any other leagues, and am
very happy to be a member of the VBG. It's
a great league. Although I
am a fan of current MLB, I much prefer historical DMB seasons. Researching and learning about players I
never knew about is especially gratifying. The rest of my DMB time is
spent in
the fictional universe of Boothby Marsh … check it out sometime in the
DMB
TapaTalk boards. |
