Fun
Everything in my life revolves around my wife and kids they are #1. I’d say my #2 biggest hobby is song writing/recording this is something i’ve done since I was a child. I have played in many bands over the years mostly rock ‘n roll and self recorded 3 collections of music to date under the sudo title of Psyco-Sonic Popsycle. I also really enjoy amateur photography, hiking and camping.
