About Me

Lowandslow: I'm just your typical middle class guy who's seen his fair number of birthday candles. Sixty eight, actually. Most of the time I'm quite happy and contented, but some days life conspires to just chap the heck out of me. Or to put it another way, "Some days you're the windshield, some days you're the bug." I write about both. I have a wonderful wife, Kelly (aka K), three incredible grown/married daughters, four handsome grandsons and two drop-dead gorgeous little granddaughters. Sadly, On October 21, 2014 I lost my best friend, my Yorkshire Terrier, Luke. He took over a special place in my heart after his sisters Emma Belle (Miniature Schnauzer) and Tara Belle (West Highland White Terrier) went West in 2011 and 2009, respectively. Can you tell I'm a dog lover? After losing Luke, K and I invited Jax, a rescue dog, into our family. :) I enjoy American (college) football, English rugby, and Formula 1 auto racing.
