OTHER ACTIVITIES

I am from Jacksonville, Florida and enjoy most water sports, watching ACC and UNCA basketball, taking art classes and spending time with my husband and our two boys and two dogs. This summer, the boys and I travelled to Wyoming and back east through the Great Plains and Michigan's Upper Peninsula. You can see a photograph we took at Mt. St. Helen's on last year's trip on my home page. If you want to see more pictures....
