I'm a 54 year old male living in Scottsdale, AZ with my wife and our
seven cats, one dog and two bunnies - all rescues. Not all of us are
vegan, but most of us are a little Trekkie, probably because of our
close proximitely to the planet Chandler. (:

Born and raised in New Jersey, I moved to Arizona in 1986. I became a
Sierra Club outings leader and I've been leading Sierra Club outings
in Arizona for about 20 years, climbing most of Arizon's major peaks.
I'm now pursuing a long overdue Master's degree.

Hopefully you can see a picture of my wife and I on a very cold day
atop Humphreys Peak. Humphreys is Arizona's highest peak at over
12,000 ft. We climbed Humphreys shortly after running our first
marathon a few years ago. Since then, we've run several other
marathons. I don't mean to brag, just wanted to point out some
achievements we've made as vegans. We were both raised as omnivores
and both had health challenged childhoods. A vegan diet and lifestyle
has definately been an improvement.

We're not really sure how "vegan" we are. We look at it as more of a
pursuit. We're constantly in pursuit of a more vegan lifestyle.
