Family, weight lifting, fishing and watching sports

I enjoy spending time with my wife and children. We spend time fishing, going to dirt tracks to watch racing and enjoying time together. For 35 years I have been exercising and lifting weights for enjoyment and for the positive health effects. Me and my sons enjoy watching football and baseball as well as other sports on tv and at the stadiums. Being a Husband and Father is a very important part of my life and my joy to provide along with my Wife the love and needs for our family.
