In addition
to a passion for animals in general and horses in particular, I
also enjoy whitewater rafting and reading. It's a little tough to
fit these hobbies around a full-time job and a farm but that makes
it all the more special when I have time. I've had the opportunity
to go whitewater rafting a number of times. It's exciting that some
truly wonderful rafting takes place along the same river, the New
River, where my grandfather used to take us fishing. The rafting
company we usually use is Wildwater
Expeditions. While you are there, check out Babcock
State Park. My grandfather helped build this park as part of
the works program in the Great Depression. I spent many a summer
in this park while growing up. Being an admitted
geek, my favorite books are The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R.
Tolkien and The Foundation Trilogy by Isaac Asimov. |
