 Hello all my name is Rhett Jaquish and I am coming to you from southern Wisconsin about 25miles north of Madison.  I am currently enrolled in the Biology program here.  I am also working full time as a park and recreation specialist for the department of natural resources here in Wisconsin.  I am a lifelong farmer and still live on the family farm today.  We just graze cattle now since we sold the cattle a couple of years ago.  When it come to art I don't consider myself an artist.  The only thing close to art I enjoy is building things mainly from wood.   My boys like tractor videos.   redlin
