Hobbies and Interests

My Garage:

I love spending time in my garage, lately restoring vintage motocross bikes.  There's several classic bikes lined up in my project list.  There's also a '54 Packard my son and I work on.  It doesn't end there, many different projects pass through the work space.

RV Camping/Traveling:

In January 2013, my wife and son had a moment of insanity and bought an RV on eBay.  So now we are the proud owners of a Fleetwood Fiesta 31H.  As a class A motorhome, it has all the creature comforts of home.  Until the RV, camping meant a backpack, a canoe and a tent.  We've already put 2,000 miles on her between MD, VA, PA, DE and NJ.

We've camped several times with my brother, Dan, and his family who are avid campers.  Dan restored a classic Airstream.  See his restoration at http://197519751975airstream.blogspot.com.

Sailing:

Of course, I still enjoy sailing.  Although I haven't done it nearly as much as I'd like lately.  Our Catalina 30 is currently stored in Perryville, suffering from an engine with a cracked block (yes, that's another project in the garage).  My wife, kids and I spent considerable time working on her refit/restoration, and we still have a lot to do.  See Catalina Restoration for details.

Entertainment:

The wife and I enjoy heading out for an evening sometimes and enjoy live music and a good game of pool.  While travelling we always try to find local restaurants that encompass the spirit of the town we’re visiting.
