Hello

Welcome to my virtual soapbox! Mostly, I share my creative efforts and travels, but every once in a while I take a plunge off the deep end to "express my angst". In case you're wondering, Solslett is the old homestead in Norway, where my Mom grew up. It's the home of my heart. Contact me via solslett at gmail dot com.

You can also find me on LinkedIn, here is my profile.

Most pictures shown on this site were taken by me, and can only be used with my permission. All others will be sited to the owner or linked to the originators site.
