Oil Painting, Salmon fishing, Golf, Dahlia growing

In my spare time I enjoy taking oil painting workshops with a variety of teachers. I love salmon fishing in the straights of Juan de Fuca or trout fishing in Lake Sammamish. I have a flower farm in Happy Valley Redmond with my name on it and my sister and I sell flowers and dahlia tubers during the Summer.
