Welcome
Welcome to the web home of Yogadad.
I am defined in quite a few different ways. Here are some of them:
* Executive Director of the Midwest Collaborative for Library Services. I've been doing this gig for almost 15 years and am completely geeked about being here. Still.
* Yoga student. I've a student of Ruth Fisk at the Center for Yoga for more than 10 years. Yoga has given me so much over the years. Without it, I wouldn't be the person I am today nor would I have been able to make some major life changes.
* Coffee drinker. I've been called a coffee snob. I don't think so. Well, not really anyway. I just like good coffee, especially celebes kalossi. I buy my coffee at The Coffee Barrel.
* Beer drinker. Not nearly as enthused about beer as I used to be. Although I'm thinking I may start brewing again. And I'll never turn down a glass of IPA.
* Civil War battlefield aficionado. Love to visit them and walk all over them. I never really understood Gettysburg until I went to the battlefield for the first time. Ditto Shiloh. It's a terrible shame that so many battlefields have nearly disappeared.
* Cheap wine enthusiast. If it costs more than $20 a bottle, don't bother me with it. I only want the best value for my hard-earned money
* Mysteries. Old and new. From Agatha Christie to Raymond Chandler to Elmore Leonard to Tarquin Hall.
