Guess the adventure for Jim Gabor really began while stationed in Naples Italy serving the U.S. Navy. Purchase of a brand new 1973 Land/Rover Series III at the factory in Solihull England was, , , well lets say normal life was never to be the same; if that vehicle could tell stories, ahhh maybe not. . . Once discharged and back in the States Jim got his literary start with an AA Print Media Degree from Rochester Community College that was never fully utilized; add a dash of life's turmoil and the rest is history. . .This twist started with employ at the Minnesota Department Natural Resources; where one of his duties was writing articles titled as a Forestry Information Specialist. . . Then came time to leave the DNR and become a 'maverick' with his own Timber Business in the Drift-Less-Area of S. E. Minnesota, S. W. Wisconsin and N. E. Iowa. . . As one timber land Barron ex college professor-encouraging customer that Jim worked with put it; "Working all day cruising timber by yourself, , , no wonder you have such a wild imagination." While dabbling on an Ecology degree Jim came up with his base story line for 'Paint the Dragon'. It had its beginnings from a Business Law class project, upon which a discord on creative-writing ensued with the Law Professor. . . "I find your paper's-story-line is too far into the realm of creative-writing for the class project that was assigned," stated an intrigued Law Professor. "Although not quite fitting my curriculum; play it out and let's just see where this goes, , , it quite possibly could make a good book," smiled the Law Professor. . . So enjoy the quirky read and get ready for another parky installment of the scarpered adventures of Lisa and Susan. .
