When rock is criminal, criminals ROCK!

About Me

What a year 2007 was! Many ups and downs. Sadly, I lost my Grandpa in November. He was an awesome man and will be missed. I saw OAR in New York with a good friend. I started mountain biking again and even raced with my new bike for the first time. I went backpacking again in the porcupine mountains and this time my mom cam with us. I saw several concerts: OAR twice, Rusted Root twice, G. Love, Clutch, and Bob Dylan. I "Rocked the Market" and received the Presidents Club Award for my company. They're sending me to the Bahamas, Atlantis Resort, for a week! Also, I was awarded New Store Manager of the Year for 2007! My mom was diagnosed with cancer. Luckily they caught it early and removed it! So,here's 2008! The future is unwritten! PUT YOUR ABOUT ME SECTION HERE! Changes may take up to 2 mins to show on your profile....

My Interests

Anything outdoors related. Hunting, fishing, hiking, mountain biking, camping, kayaking, disc golf, regular golf, and anything I haven't tried that is outdoors related. I like live music and hangin with good friends.

I'd like to meet:

Ernest Hemmingway, Fred Bear, and Threodore Roosevelt. But I can't because they're all dead. So I guess I'll settle for you. PUT YOUR I'D LIKE TO MEET SECTION HERE! Changes may take up to 2 mins to show on your profileView All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment
