I have lived in Minnesota most of my life. I enjoy traveling, meeting people and learning the local culture. I've traveled to Mexico, Canada, Asia and many places in Europe. I owned my own construction business for a few years, City Manager for 30+ years, volunteer Fireman, volunteer EMT on ambulance, private pilot, paraglider, motorcyclist, woodworker, photographer, part-time farmer, apiary man and gardener.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Amazing is a relative thing in life. For me some notable things are: Flying an airplane, jumping out of an airplane (with a parachute of coarse), participating in a half marathon and triathlons, riding a motorcycle across the USA, bicycling in many countries, being a good son, brother, uncle and friend, building homes, volunteering in great organizations such as Jaycees, Rotary, Lions, Sertoma, and Habitat for Humanity. The list goes on, but they are only amazing to me because that is who I am.
