Hello EJ,
This is helpful info - also thanks for the reply. I does seem that it is a 
permissions issue.
I almost got thing going - as root user i was able to insure that python3 
(3.6) was installed - for python I have to use python3 mypythonfile.py.

As root, and umask 022, i installed anisible using pip3 install ansible 
(when connected to internet)
As root I was able to verify that ansible was using python3 - ansible 
--version, etc.
the path for ansible is now: /usr/local/bin/ansible.

So I thought I had it fixed - I logged off as root, logged on as standard 
user.
tried to run ansible and I get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/ansible", line 34, in <module>
    from ansible import context
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'ansible'  

I the UMASK is back to 077 - I will check your suggestions on permissions 
in the  /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/ansible file/directory and 
in /usr/local/bin/ansible area.

Thanks again for the tips. I appreciate it.

I will get back with results.
thanks,
ewholz
