Welcome Aboard

About Us

My photo
I'm Cathy, a 67 year old retired Navy wife. Spent 24 years as a Navy wife until my husband retired after 27 years of service. We traveled all over from Washington D.C., to Puerto Rico, St. Croix, St. Maartin, Martinique, Japan and Korea. We re-located to this beautiful state of TN from Central FL. We live in the mountains on 5 acres with our 10 cats (5 indoor). I'm Chuck, the Other Half of the equation. I'm a 68 y/o sailor at heart. While in the Navy I was a Cryptologic Tech (Intel type). My most memorable tours of duty were in Submarines (Scorpion, Skipjack, Triton & Ray), as Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Deputy Director National Security Agency (RADM C.F. Clark), and my last tour as Operations Chief at NSGA Homestead, Fl during Hurricane Andrew. It was a good time to retire. We have been looking for this home since 1965 and thank the good Lord that we're finally here.

My Latest Finds


These are some of the projectile points that I have found on and around our property. They vary from arrow heads used to hunt birds and small game to the larger knife and broken hatchet head (upper right corner). The small item 2nd from the top on the right hand side is a shaper that was used to smooth the shafts of arrows. This is one of my favorite past time hobbies. I've learned a lot about early man's history (5000-8000BC). Very few if any of these points date from our more modern indians of 200 years ago.

What a neat fine. How interesting. Jaryd would love to go hunting for that sort of thing. I think Josh would too.
