I'm living in Vollenhove ( former Brederwiede County ) - nowadays Steenwijkerland Co. - The Netherlands
Nickname is PATS ( see bussiness card ) , it's a shortening for "Per Adres Teun Schuurman".
Since 1975 everyone knows me better under the name "PATS" than Teun.
Worked for almost 30 years at WL|Delft Hydraulics - see also worksite -
CANON-TEST - shows images around my office; surrounded by my feathered friends.
April'97 I founded "PATS GRAPHICS DESIGN" Love to travel, bike and work in the graphics corner.
3D & DTM do have a special attention.
Mainly with AutoCAD and Raytracers, like VIVID & POVRAY, further CorelDraw, and related programs.
See my New Year's images.
In order to keep in shape I use my bicycles, the Iron Horses. Annually I was - till 2006 - biking around 8000 km!
See my "TOURCLUB"
America has become my second country in the last 33 years. Visited 39 of the 50 states, another 11 to go !!!!!
Traveled 34 times to the CANADA/USA, due all the flights - 214 times take-off - I became curious
and get involved with FLIGHTSIMULATOR (Scandinavian site, NORWAY, etc....try LINKER)
In 1982 I flew around the world. Malysia, Indonesia, Singapore, HongKong,
Hawaii, Canada & USA were on the list

So keep an eye on it
Years ago I was spending a lot of time to design a very detailed Dutch scenery
My first plan, The Noord Oost Polder and of course my "own" Vollenhove
But with the design utilities I was using in AutoCAD
the area covers most of the borders of the IJsselmeer and Waddenzee
The same area is since Apr 2006 also the base for my WWII research - 1346 pages,
with this side-track MACR 12109 - 112 pages - a total of 1458 pages !!!
A "lighter" version of my WWII project is here SGLO
My dialect - Veno's - belongs to the "Stellingwarfs" ...... take a look at the "LOWLANDS-page"
See nr.22 on the "dialect map" from the Netherlands, incl. the Flemish part of Belgium.
There is a small book, "Het dialekt van de Stad Vollenhove" - ISBN 90-6697-082-0 by J.J.Spa.
