My Interests: Hiking, backpacking, camping, kayaking, survival shows, boating, hockey, Boston sports, especially the Bruins! and real estate. I enjoy taking care of my four and half acre homestead, and enjoying life with my better half, Linda!
I enjoy planning my hikes so they always mean something to me. Sunrises, sunsets, full moons, and more are always exciting to mix with climbing a mountain or taking on a big adventure. With so many peak lists and interesting goals to shoot for in New England, it keeps me going back to the mountains. For the most part, I do this as a way to challenge myself physically and mentally.
