Summary

I was raised in the Napa / Sonoma Valleys and have lived rurally for all of my life. My partner Louis Fameli and I have been a couple for 38 years now, and we have lived in the same rental house on acreage for 28 years now. We are a very dependable low profile retired couple seeking to leave the United States before an actual Civil War starts.
