What do I love to do

  • Fishing - I have fished from International Falls to Chisago County and all counties in between. Small Mouth Bass, Northern, Large Mouth Bass, Sunnies, Crappies, Muskie and Walleye.
  • Hunting - I do some bird hunting but I enjoy time in the deer stand with my kids. I was there when my son shot his first deer and love to take my daughter in the stand.
  • Scuba Diving - from diving the Crosby Mines to Cozumel, It is something that really is relaxing for me.
  • Volunteering - as a family we volunteer between 200 to 500 hours a year, from serving meals in Minneapolis to the food shelf in Braham. Taking kids fishing to soccer coach in Pine City. It is what we do and who we are.
  • Project Cozumel - each Spring a bunch of divers and friends from a church in Rochester go down to Cozumel where we put concrete roofs on homes being rebuilt as a result of hurricane Wilma in 2005. To date we have replaced 6 roofs and worked on many other homes.
  • Working at the Retreat Center - there is always something to do. Climbing in my skid steer and pushing dirt to siding a cabin, I love to spend time with the kids working on projects.
