About this
page…
I haven’t previously posted very much about myself on the
internet… but my Mom (of all people) was recently giving me a hard
time about my internet presence, that it wasn’t very much fun….So
– here it is, Mom! J
Personal Interests:
My family (first!), health (see my CSUS page), the environment (more
below), sports (more below), music, wine (more
below)….
I won’t de-privatize my family by placing photos on the web….
But the rest I can share:
Sports
Snow Sports: Alpine skiing, cross country, snow-shoeing…
 yes… that is me in 1984… and yes that is a
wooden board with 3 metal fins and a rubber strap for “bindings”…boots?
K-swiss tennis shoes!
Ski Patrol: I am active as a National Ski Patroller at Sugar Bowl
 
Road Biking, mountain biking, swimming, running, triathlons, etc…
 yes, that’s
me breathing hard at the Wildflower Tri in 2006. I improved my time by more
than 15 minutes in 2007…. But there’s still a long way to go!
Hey – at least I try!
Fishing: Fly fishing in rivers & casting in Alaska
 
Scuba diving
Had the greatest time getting
into diving this summer at the Cousteau resort in Fiji
Windsurfing
In a previous life (p.k.), I was ALL about windsurfing… but I only
occasionally get out on the water. Maybe next year?
The environment
We’ve
got photovoltaic system on our roof, CF bulbs, we do carbon off-sets for
our cars & trips, bike commute whenever possible, recycle damn near
everything that comes to the house, buy local/organic, etc…. …now
we are just waiting for bio-diesel in the central valley (and a decent
choice in diesel cars!)
Other
than that, I highly recommend the following 2 organizations as doing
outstanding, high-impact work for the environment.
