Wild Reef Dedicated to My Reef Tanks! Owner, Web Designer, Developer |
|
One of the greatest passions in my life was a 700 Gallon (1,080 Gallons total) reef tank stocked with rare corals and fish imported from all over the world when I had an
Importation license and sold to local fish stores. Our tank and it's critters have been featured in magazines like (the cover on the left I refer to as Fish Porn Magazing - those are our Mandarins Mating)
FAMA. I feel like I am an expert plumber, electrician, and water purity specialist. Having to learn everything from what types of lighting certain corals require, to what minerals to put into the water to feed them when using synthetic sea salt... Owning an Aquarium of this size was a daunting task, which I eventually gave up on, when every vent in my house was rusted as were all the tools I owned. |

Congo African Greys |
|
In case you couldn't tell, I am a little bit crazy for birds. My first bird was a cockateil, "Twiggy" and now I have two Congo African Greys, reputed to be the best talkers.
I used to breed birds when I lived in Atlanta and raised many clutches of Conyers, Cockateils, and Parakeets. But all that tweeting gets on ones nerves and now I am down to
two babies that are hand tame and love kisses. They do have it in for my husband James however, biting him whenever he gets anywhere near their beaks! |

Italian Greyhounds |
| We have two Italian Greyhounds. I adopted now two dogs from the Italian Greyhound Rescue Society. They are my surrogate children as we don't have any kids, and are unable to have them on our own. So they are our "kids" per say. We plan on adopting real kids one day, but don't think that will be anytime soon. | |

Harley Davidson : V-Rod |
| My husband and I bought Harleys in July of 2006 and are avid riders now, even joining a group called BACA (Bikers Against Child Abuse). The charter for BACA is that we empower children to stand up in court against their abusers (as the parents are often called as witnesses in court so the children end up facing the perpetrator on their own). So we work with the Child Advocacy Centers and adopt the children early on as our "little brothers and sisters" and we become their support system during the trial and forever thereafter. We use the biker persona to empower children to stand up in court and put the bad guys in prison. The work I do with BACA makes me feel great and it is a great group of people, if you ever saw that movie "Wild Hogs" the people in BACA are not the bikers of old that rape and pillage they are Doctors, Lawyers, Engineers, and professionals from many industries. | |
