Lives in Ithaca, New York
Hello AirBnB Community, We are the Moore family. I have a long military history that started way back in ninth grade with ROTC. I then spent several years in both the Army and Air Force. I'm a retired Ithaca police officer. Our family loves to travel and has visited many countries. We've used AirBNB on several occasions which is why we decided to convert our in-law unit into an AirBNB. "A smile is a curve that sets everything straight."
