Born and raised in Baltimore City, I had spent almost my entire life in and around its inner harbor.
Two years ago there was finally a need for change. So my wife Lorrie and I decided to look at other environments. Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire… all beautiful but all way too cold in the winter. We finally landed on a small farm outside of Harpers Ferry, WV., and I took my studio with me.
Beautiful. Peaceful. No sirens. No “Help, Police!”.
Now, eagles fly overhead instead of policed helicopters. We are surrounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains, deer and snow geese. On Thursday evenings we head over to O’Hurley’s General Store and listen to a Old Time Music.
Besides designing, I now tend to organic vegetables and fruit trees, raising goats and chickens. Fresh air and working with the land helps feed my head and warms my heart. This place calms my soul, stirs my creativity. I look forward to spending many years designing and sharing my life and work with you here in West Virginia.
Thanks for visiting, please take care,
Bob

Philadelphia football struggled through the Marion Campbell years of the mid-1980s and was marked by a malaise in fan participation. In 1986 , the arrival of head coach Buddy Ryan and his fiery attitude rejuvenated team performance and ignited the fan base, but the Eagles failed to win a playoff game during Ryan’s tenure. Ryan was fired on January 7, 1991 after an upset home playoff loss to the Redskins . Offensive coordinator Rich Kotite was promoted to head coach three days later. Though Kotite did lead the Eagles to one playoff victory against the New Orleans Saints during the 1992 season , his contract was not renewed after a disastrous 1994 season in which the Eagles went 7–9, losing their last seven games after starting the season 7–2. From 1988 to 1996, the Eagles qualified for the playoffs during 6 out of those 9 seasons, but they won the NFC East only once, in 1988 . Among the team’s offensive stars during that period were quarterback Randall Cunningham , tight end Keith Jackson , and running back Herschel Walker . But the “Gang Green” defense is what defined the team, led by Reggie White , Jerome Brown , Clyde Simmons , Seth Joyner , Wes Hopkins , Mike Golic , Byron Evans , Eric Allen , and Andre Waters .
