Hi! Thanks for visiting my website - please explore! Also, check out Science on Tap - PXV!
My wife, Amy, and I have been married since 2010. We technically had a "destination wedding," but it was in Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania (PA). Given that I am from Long Island, NY and Amy is from Kingston, PA, it was not that much of a "destination" in the way the word is typically used for weddings. Regardless, the town of Jim Thorpe is awesome and we spent three years (yes, three years) learning a choreographed ballroom dance set to "This Must Be The Place" by the Talking Heads. Neither of us can remember the full dance, but we can both Foxtrot like champs (at least in our heads).
Amy and I have three kids, Mae (who would be 14), Ward (13) and Rosie (9). We all enjoy different things, of course, but together we like to cook, garden, fish, and play video games (old-school ones and Fortnite). For my part in the gardening, I built a bunch of raised beds and we plant all kinds of herbs, leafy greens, hot peppers (my favorite), corn, carrots, garlic, onions, and so on. We have a pet rabbit named Carl - he loves to munch on some of the leafy greens and crimson clover! We also now have two rescue dogs - Abe and Buck (the newer addition)! We also have three nameless chickens.
In my "free" time I love to read, fish with my kids, go "creek-stomping," bike and walk on trails, and get beat up a bunch via Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Some of my favorite books are What Moves the Dead by T. Kingfisher (Ursula Vernon), And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie, Cat's Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut, Shark Trouble by Peter Benchley, and really anything written by Ray Bradbury. I also enjoy reading books about writing style. I suppose it goes without saying but, yes, I also love books about economics, sustainability, and human rights. I also love horror and comedy movies, and most movies from the 80s.
