Or, "that which doesn't kill you outright makes you stronger" Hobbies: Sailing, fishing/sometimes hunting News: Two grown sons, Trent and Nate, both primarily study and teach martial arts--Mainly Chinese forms. No grandkids yet, but Trent is getting married later this year. Me, volunteer local fire/rescue company. Sometimes teach outward bound courses here in Maine. Water's kind of cold, though. |
