About Gene...
I am a retired academic librarian. I collected stamps and accumulated postcards for many years, but those collections have been sold. I read about Postcrossing in a letter to the editor of the American Philatelist and thought this would be an interesting followup to my earlier interests. My wife and I have traveled widely, but we are now mostly homebodies, newly moved to a retirement center with a lot of interesting activities. Other interests are flower gardening (especially daylilies [Hemerocallis]), classical music, drama, and family history. I look forward to receiving postcards from unexpected places in the coming months.
