Favorite Part about Being a Paddler: Paddling.
Marital Status: Single never married...see below hobbies for subtle clues as to WHY
Favorite Movie: hmmm, this is a tough one. I would have to pick three: Sean Of The Dead, The Secret and Princess Bride. All for vastly different reasons.
Favorite Website:
www.mulletsgalore.com for fun and great mullets and
www.columbiabasinequinerescue.org who do an amazing job rescuing wonderful horses and mules from the slaughterhouse.

Other Sports: I am a new competitor in Triathlons, am a real winner in mutton busting and am the reigning champion in my boat for cussing.
Hobbies: I love my horse and mule so that makes me a real fan of scooping approximately 40 lbs of poop a day, I am a nature-aholic and love to immerse myself in anything that crawls, slithers, or grows from the ground. I teach wildlife and environmental education and have a wicked wildlife skull and skin collection for teaching people about the natural world....and a very cool tank of carrion beattles to help me make roadkill into such things. (see above marital status- not a shock huh?)
