Welcome to the Graybeard Paine web site.
LATEST NEWS: The Latest News link simply reports the latest and greatest of Graybeard's activities. There's not much here to interest folks unless they know me personally; it's mostly info for family and friends. Still, if you are one of those folks who gets a kick out of looking into the lives of others, have at it.
MY PHOTOGRAPHY: The My Photography link will take you to another site where I display some of my photography. I take a great many photographs, not all of them good, but try to display the better ones on paulpaine.com. I hope you go there and find them enjoyable.
MY WRITING: Writing is my avocation; my fun hobby. I have a number of writing projects underway, including a family history, a bit of poetry and short stories, a humorous mystery, and a couple detective stories. Some may never be completed because I can't solve the mystery or because my characters won't behave. The My Writing link will take you to another site, pdpaine.us, where I have excerpts and where I also publish my columns, essays and rants.
LAZI DAWG: Previous visitors may remember that Donna and I wanted to build a stern wheel riverboat to cruise the Mississippi and it’s tributaries. We wanted to produce travel videos and write about attractions and events along the river. Donna's death and my health problems prevent such a grand undertaking, so I have an alternative; I built a small sail boat, suitable for sailing on the many lakes in Oklahoma. I am publishing photos and a description of the construction process on the "Lazi Dawg" pages.
