Flats fishing and guiding for snook, redfish, trout, cobia, and triple tail. We have been asked to guide for Dave Moore (Bucs color coordinator and former tight end), Tony Dungy, The Bishop of the Anglican Church of Kenya and many others. We play music in Tampa Bay. Sing, play guitar, harmonica and write songs. We played Baywalk for 3 years and various resorts and private functions. I have a recording studio which uses pro tools 8, melodyne, etc. and is called 'Crystal Palace Studio'. Al Koehn is a famous voice teacher who has been kind enough to take me on as a long term student. Carlos Morales (Gators at Treasure Island) taught me how to do midi backtracks and brought me light years ahead in computer music studio. Tony Dibrango is tutoring me in Pro Tools.
Hiking through the remote regions and rainforests of Central and South America with our kids. We study species of the animal kingdom with some filming. We have some nice footage of the Tikal Mayan ruins and one of the most primal rainforests in Central America called Corcovado National Forest. The Jesus Christ lizard running across the streams, the rare blue-green eye-lash viper resting in a tree next to us.
We are registered paleontologists with the state of Florida and we have been collecting fossils since 1984. We are currently building a museum of fossils which include mammoth molars including the sinus bones,mastodon teeth, various dinosaur teeth, giant ground sloths and more.
We have a camp with cabins on a river in the woods in Gulf Hammock whereby we raise animals and are actively involved in some hunting and a lot of conversation. We have put more than 100 Eastern wild turkeys on the land and over 1,000 bob white quails on the land to repopulate. We have been careful to keep the generic species constant with the rest of the inhabitants of the area.
Proactively studying implantology and all forms of advanced bone grafting. We enjoy thinking through predictable modern dentistry and adding ideas which may contribute to the science in some small way. Traveling to continuing education courses around the country as we are able.
I have made a commitment to fish with Tony Jr. as much as I am able until he goes off to college. Tony Jr. is sort of the Steve Irwin (crocodile) of the next generation. He is always studying and collecting various species from the Tampa Bay area and has been doing community service at Mote Marine during the summer of 2011. He guides people through the main aquariums and answers any questions they may have.
My daughter Sarah is now an accomplished musician and teaches flute, voice lessons (singing (, and piano. She is enrolled at a music college in Florida working on the her bachelors then masters degrees.
Tony Jr. is 24 years old and has acquired his Captains license and does professional fishing charters and family excursions to islands for picnics, snorkeling, and whatever the family or group desires. He has been fishing since he was 4 years old and is very successful getting people into fish when he charters.
Just returned from the Dominican Republic for 8 days in February 2010, and did surgery all day consisting of sinus lifts, autogenous block grafts from the chin and the ramus of the mandible to build ridge height and width for placing implants, segmental osteotomies and more. We used the piezosurgery unit for all our advanced bone grafting.
This is another method of raising the sinus membrane for people who need implants in the upper jaw. This method cuts the costs by 2/3rd and the morbidity of pain and swelling is almost eradicated. It is also promising instead of using Summers osteotome technique which has been know to contribute to BPPV (vertigo due to mallet and osteotome). We do this without an incision through a small biopsy punch hole.
Most of our implants are placed without surgery. We have a unique method of using a biopsy punch and removing a round area of the gingival tissue and then placing the implant simply by using a few instruments which allow us to screw the implant in. Most of our patients have reported no pain or swelling postop so it has been proven very effective.
Private general dental practice in St. Petersburg, FL, since 1991. We offer a full complement of cosmetic dentistry. For example, the latest crowns (called DVS by 3 M Lava) are a blend of an all ceramic core fused to a transluscent veener which makes it look more like real enamel. The lava is one of the strongest materials known to dentistry as well as the state of the art in esthetic dentistry. They are milled by a precise computer program so the fit is flawless.
We enjoy all aspects of general dentistry whether white fillings or porcelain minimally prepped restorations. We practice IV sedation routinely and we do just about every surgical and restorative procedure except orthodontics.
We are very current in our training, approach and technology. Our piezosurgery unit is a state of the art surgical machine which cuts hard tissue (bone) but will not cut soft tissue (nerves, sinus membranes, etc). It is very critical for implantology and preservation of vital structures and bone.
We also own BTI PRGF (platelet rich growth factor) system which takes the growth factors like stem cells from the patients own IV line and aids in the growth of soft tissue and bone. We use it in our sinus lifts and bone reconstruction. It appears to have helped keep infection away as well as to grow tissue.
Prior to dentistry: missionary, pastor, commercial painter and wallpaper, blueprinting, construction, hospital and nursing home orderly, grocery store manager, choir director, childrens church minister, and chief custodian of Rudd Chapel at Bryan College.
We authored a book available at iuniverse.com and barnesandnoble.com as well as other sites, called: 'I Never Backed Down'. This book is the life story as told by former patient, friend, and mentor, Gene Turner, also known as the father of kingfishing in the west coast of Florida. Gene passed away in October of 2010.It 's about fishing and a very special man who did alot for conservation and fishing in Florida.
