Hobbies

I enjoy working with my hands and being productive. I have rebuilt a number of cars, trucks and motorcycles. I am currently renovating our 100 year old home, including an electrical service overhaul and adding living space to the basement. I also enjoy outdoors activities such as camping, hunting and fishing. My greatest joy is having my children help with tasks and enjoy our adventures.
