Have always been active....former marathon runner, long distance cyclist, hiker, and more...most of which I do with my wife. Have 3 grown kids and 6 grand kids. Am a Christian. 

Other hobbies include crossword puzzles, KenKen puzzles, and woodworking. Making chessboards in my shop for grand kids is what attracted me to chess.
