I have a doctorate and teach Science, Math, & Technology to youngsters. I enjoy hiking, rock and fossil collecting, and still feel a sense of wonder for stars, sunsets, the mountains, and oneness. 

I hope to find and reconnect with friends from Morris High School in the Bronx, NY and William Paterson University in Wayne, NJ,  and establish new friendships. I am grateful to be here today.

Carpe diem,

Hi @sciteachmd Maria. Welcome! You and I share a love of the natural world and the science that makes it understandable. While there is no move in the offing, DH and I also like FL because there are many recumbent trike racers and senior athlete events there.

Off to seize the day, while wishing you a grand one,

Epster

@sciteachmd - Welcome to Online Community, Maria! I worked for Con Ed, including 7 years at a facility off East Tremont Ave & White Plains Rd. Also lived in Bergen County, NJ for 29 years, so I've been to things at William Paterson as well.

What part of Florida are you in? (I'm considering a move because NJ has such high taxes, and I only see it getting worse.)
