What he discovered was that it didn’t matter as much where you lived but how.After getting a medical degree, he volunteered for the U.S. Army and did a tour of duty as Regimental Surgeon for the 6th Armored Cavalry.Doc Foxx spent almost as much time chasing adventure as he did practicing medicine. He wound up a semi-accomplished amateur ski racer, a licensed and successful world-class offshore navigator and veteran of sailboat races from the Caribbean to the Med and Hawaii, breeder, owner, and trainer of the top Field Trial Champion Chesapeake Bay Retriever in 1984, and a rated polo player.Only not all at once.Writing has been his constant passion. When he raced sailboats he wrote for YACHTING and SEA, and when he played polo he wrote for POLO, SIDELINES, and SPUR, as well as PALM SPRINGS LIFE and the DESERT SUN.SPIRIT RANCH is his second book, much shorter and more focused than BULLETPROOF, the first (which never saw the light of day).Writing is still his passion as is country-western music, and cooking. A lifelong horseman and vaquero, Doc Foxx rides at every opportunity. His favorite authors are Fitzgerald, Cormac McCarthy, Robert Penn Warren, and David Payne. The Doc, as he is known, still practices medicine but has been known to drop everything at a moment’s notice for a whiff of adventure horseback.He lives in Valley Center with his wife and soulmate, JoAnn, and Sammy, a black Lab, not far from his horses.He can be reached at spiritranch@earthlink.net.ver menos
