About Me

Hello all...

I have kept my profile active only so I can continue to surf AWAY from the park. Although, If you are in the park, and want to hang out.. send me a message :)

And onto about me..

CURRENT MISSION

To live on room service (well, at least travel and test the sleeping qualities of various couches)

ABOUT ME

Professionally, I am the Fire Chief of Gateway National Recreation Area located in Sandy Hook, New Jersey. A great job with some great rewards!...

I love the outdoors! I enjoy many exciting outdoor activities including hiking, mountain biking, road biking, camping, kayaking, there are a ton of places to do this here! There are plenty of sights to see, and history to learn!

Other hobbies you may ask? Let's see...photography, flying kites, domestic and international travel. I do not watch much television, but I do have a few favorite shows.
