hiking, backpacking, camping, fishing, rock climbing, canoing, anything that gives me the opportunity to experience and enjoy God's beautiful creations. i also love anything that encourages me to use my brain such as reading, writing, school,and watching the history channel oh, and whooping my friends butts at Cranium. my creative cat comes out in my painting, drawing, and sculpting. Oh, can't forget about snowboarding and drinking coffee.
