My library has over a thousand volumes, each of which I have read.

Reading, writing and arithmetic, seriously.

Drums of all sort, piano, a little fiddle, etc. Tending the garden in summer. Jigsaw puzzles in winter.

I'm a simple man. I work hard, play fair, and sleep well. If you meet me in your daily sojourn, you will be treated with respect-you deserve it. My wife is my far better half, and my daughter a source of pride.

Flying my powered parachute is a thrill that doesn't diminish even after hundreds of hours-watch the video above for a hint of why. My farm, or perhaps I should say, that bit of creation for which I have stewardship, keeps me busy and mindful of my Father's provision and care. If I fail to show you love, call me on it-"He's still working on me."

Flying. Trout fishing, even if they aren't biting.RV camping with my bride. A game of Scrabble with my daughter. Live music. Kind people. A returned smile. A book, a hammock and summer evening.

I don't like television, Hollywood, football, angry adults or whiny children. Or whiny adults for that matter."Life is too short to be small."
