A little look into my personal life.
i enjoy spending time with my family outdoors, typically were at our farm working with horses and livestock, or going on weekend outings to explore. i always find myself building on to and repairing the barn, fences, and land there making them better suited for conditions and making life a little easier. In my off time im usually in outside working either my truck or my wife's car making them readily available for weekend adventures. i've always been fond of getting into the mix of things and getting my hands dirty with everyone else to get the job done.
