Galen's Home Page

Welcome to my website! These pages describe some of my various projects and hobbies. I hope you will find something interesting, entertaining, and maybe even useful here.

THIS WEBSITE IS UNDER RE-CONSTRUCTION!

I am (finally) re-vamping this website. This is being done to improve consistency in the "look and feel" of the website and to make updates considerably easier for me in the future. So as you browse around, you may note "under-construction" signs and a much different appearance in some of the pages. These will eventually disappear as I work my way through the pages...

A little about me...
I am a software developer living & working near Jackson, Wyoming (USA). This area, I believe, is one of the most beautiful areas in North America; with the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone National Park so close to my home. The climate here can be rather harsh in winter, local wages less and housing costs higher than national norms, but the scenery is awesome, the people are friendly, and opportunities for getting outdoors are second to none!

I have numerous hobbies (far too many for my own good); ranging from photography, camping, skiing, and dirt biking, to telescope making, model rocketry, and robotics. I have posted some pages detailing a few of my hobby projects. Updates and more pages will be added whenever I can find time to write them!

If you are interested in astronomy, please also visit my PlanetWatch website. PlanetWatch is my shareware Solar System atlas/simulation for Windows that I wrote some years ago. Although PlanetWatch is an old program, it runs on most versions of Microsoft Windows from 3.0 to Vista.

Comments and questions are welcome. But please, NO junk mail!
