A little about me

One of the first things to learn about me and my entire family is that we are huge basketball fans. In the winter we love to support our daughter that plays in college as well as our nieces and nephews in high school. If we aren't attending games, we are watching online. It's kind of our thing.

My free time in the spring and summer months is most likely spent in the mountains as we are actively in the process of building our own cabin. When we need a break from it, we enjoy floating the rivers and doing a little fishing. Back at home, I have recently found my passion for gardening and am really enjoying that. Most evening are spent on little hikes along the Gallatin with our spoiled rotten labrador. Our girls are all grown up now, but they still enjoy coming up to the property with us periodically. We definitely relish those times.
