For me, I have a couple of little ones that keep me busy when I am not working or doing photography, which is a second job, but also a hell of a lot of fun. I dabble in all kinds of aviation stuff, hanging around museums and airports. Some days, I just grab the camera and wander to find something interesting to take pictures of.

Once in a while, I pick up the guitar and play again. I also like to BBQ and tinker around with home improvement projects.

Outside of my work, I'm an executive board member for the NJ Animal Control Assoc. so I go to alot of meetings and help spread the word and work on new animal laws for NJ.

I'm also a shop steward with my local Union and on the Political Action Commitee and spend some time with that - I'm the fly in the ointment there, so to speak!

I also have dreams of getting published one day -have written some horror stories and currently working on a day-by-day of the Luftwaffe but that is so challenging its just become something to do after 6 years.

And then there are my kids that I try to educate and expand their little minds by doing things and going places.

And I read alot.

My full time job takes up most of my normal day. After work I have my Japanese maples, trying to learn to graft the cultivars, the greenhouse where I kinda mess with cacti, geraniums, ivy geranuims, green and purple
shamrocks, and other small plants. I build balsa/tissue models and I like to
read about WW-II. And, of course, the friends I have made here......

Photography and target shooting are my main pastimes and birdwatching with my wife. Or to be more precise, I carry the gear and consider it a walk in the country, while she does the birdwatching.
