Things I do in my “spare” time to keep me sane.
Vintage Computer Collecting – I have between 80 and 120 different machines in my collection right now, ranging from Commodores to Apples to TRS-80s, Epsons, early IBMs, and some “small iron”. I adore fiddling with both modern and old technology as I think it’s important to understand where we came from in order to properly move forward.
The River City Barbershop Chorus – I discovered the great and wonderful hobby of barbershop singing in the spring of 2001 and never looked back.
Hampton Municipal Band – The Hampton Municipal Band has been around for a long time and I was fortunate to join in 1994, playing baritone. I now play tuba for them and have a good time putting on concerts in the first month and a half of each summer.
Gourmet Cooking – I love cooking in the gourmet style and try to give myself challenges to rise to, to exercise those abilities.
Gardening – Maybe not my biggest hobby, but I enjoy having a nice garden and flowers. They’re nothing spectacular, but they are pretty and give me food, which I appreciate.
