Fishing, Hunting, Tending Horses and Cows, Playing Guitar and Bass

In my free time, I enjoy being in the outdoors with my family, wife, Kristy and son, Travis.

Hunting and fishing provide meat for my family and learning how to  appreciate God's creation's and nature.

Horses are great companions that also aid in helping manage livestock, pack out for hunting, or for pleasure in shows and rodeos/ropings.

Working cattle teaches patience and how to manage a very in demand meat source. My family has been involved with cattle and horses for over 5 decades. I hope to pass on the knowledge and appreciation to my son and future children.

Music has been a huge part in my life. From playing in my Dad's church, to playing in bluegrass open jam sessions. It's a huge stress reliever and bring people closer together. I've had the privilege to also play in the worship band while on deployment in Japan.
