What is your favorite family vacation?

An escape to the lake in Northern Wisconsin, or to ski in the Mountain West.

What is your current hobby? What’s one you’d love to try or get into?

Flyfishing, and playing the guitar. I think I’ve been spending too much time with Dan Blake 😊

Go out – my wife and I have a standing date on Friday nights (ex-pandemic) which we greatly enjoy.

Describe a life-moment you hold dear.
