Richard N Horne

Hello

I am Richard N Horne.

I enjoy adding photos to WIKIPEDIA. I believe it adds to my personal goal of being a lifelong learner.

I also hope that it adds to the information available in the encyclopedia and somehow is a contribution to universal peace through education and mutual understanding.

A picture is worth a thousand words.

Some photos that I have put up.
