SOME HOBBIES AND ACTIVITIES I DO:

Cross country, indoor track and outdoor track. Yes, that means I run year round (training in the summer). Am I insane? Somtimes I think so. But I guess I love it.

Skiing (downhill, cross country and no water skiing for the mere fact that I don't like to.

Looking at cars. I am a car nut in the sense that I love test driving cars, I know model names, prices and a little about how they run. I love reading car magazines. A bit dorky I know but I have tons of fun "car shopping."

Teaching children. I teach beginning swimming lessons, vacation Bible school and love to do youth sermons at my church.
