Count your blessings not your troubles!!
Greetings, my name is Jerry, and welcome to my Web site.
I am retired from the United States Air Force, after serving my country for 27 years. I count my blessings as the Air Force was good to me. It gave me opportunities to meet people of different cultures and backgrounds; as well as the opportunity to travel and visit different countries.
To keep busy, I like visiting zoos and national parks. Within the last three years, I have visited over 30 zoos and parks and on May 25, 2009, I visited my 100th National Park site.
I also have 13 States I need to visit as part of my goal of "50 States by 50!!"
I hope you enjoy my site. Keep smiling and take care!!
