My name is Mike Clark . I am a retired C.P.A and have a B. Comm. from the University of Calgary. Over the years I have worked in financial and oil and gas services, and providing accounting and tax services to individuals and small businesses. My hobbies have included camping, canoeing, art, photography, skiing, target shooting, and fishing. I am also a class B welder and have dabbled in hot rods and collector cars. I also have an interest in science and politics and am attempting to learn to play the guitar. I have been writing short essays for many years and am presently trying to finish a book that centers around my knowledge and experiences over the past 70 years.
