Interests:
I like to read slowly, watch movies while eating popcorn and drive on summer nights with the moonroof open. My spirit is quieted by the aura of a golf course, the sound of a loon in the evening and the sensation of wind in the sail. Once motivated beyond reason by competition, I now would rather not keep score in my time with my competitors and instead simply relish the experience.
