Spent three years as a regimental medical officer in the Canadian Army. Subsequently trained as a urological surgeon, graduating wth FRCS (C) in 1967. Practiced urology in Vernon, British Columbia, Canada, till retirement in 1999. Published a number of articles in magazines and newspapers in Canada and in Bali, Indonesia. Privately printed a memoir for limited circulation (family and friends only), followed by a similar limited circulation book of photos (Latitude Eight, Life and Death in Bali). I have traveled the world widely, and my writings reflect my experiences while on the road. I took up flying at the age of fifty-six and have written in detail about that experience. Photography is one of my interests, and except for two pictures, all photos submitted in this book are my own. I live in Vernon, British Columbia, and until fairly recently, I was an avid skier, hiker, and tennis player. I play golf, but my talent falls short of my interest. I have three grown-up daughters and a small circle of close friends. I live life to the full. Read More Read Less
