My Interests

On the road, adventure travel via adventure ICU nursing. Many great places to go in this country. I'm following the seasons, it's all about the geography and not at all about the salary. I spend 3 days a week on the unit and more than that outside. There aren't many outdoor sports I'm not into. I have a passion for trying to take great pictures of the great outdoors. Most recently I've been craving anything that involves backcountry sports. I Love my friends & family, pushing my own limits, playing my guitar, and hanging with my awesome dog .

I'd like to meet:

Hmm- Einstein, Teddy Roosevelt, Matisyahu, or Chris Fuamatu Ma'afala

Music:

XM has done great things for my musical appetite, mostly XMU..........Jack Johnson, Benni Benassi,Third Day, Cartel, Daft Punk, Rage against the Machine, Jose Gonzales, Death Cab, The Kooks, White Rabbits, Yellowcard, Jurassic 5, B.E.Peas, Chili Peppers, Matisyahu, John Butler Trio, CSS, Rilo Kiley, Common, Ben Harper, Foo Fighters, The Killers, Johnny Cash. And after a good day on the water some Live Backwoods Bluegrass can be the perfect complement to a swig of moonshine.

Movies:

Movie quotes occupy approximately 50% of my working vocabulary... Mainly funny classics like KingPin, Princess Bride, Anchor Man, Super Troopers, Zoolander, Office Space, N.Dynamite, J.Dirt, A.Powers, Dumb & Dumber, Old School, Dodgeball to other stuff Gladiator, 7 years in Tibet, LOTR & Boondock St., I Don't like most horror flciks. And I see all the good animated Kid productions- which have gone down hill of late.

Television:

Whatever the rabbit ears may pick up when I want background noise...But when I get it I like Myth Busters, Simpsons, Survivor Man, and just about any Ntl. Geographic or Discovery show. And Conan Obrien is striaght silly.

Books:

River of Doubt, Ledyard, Modoc, LOTR, The New Testament, Backcountry Snowboarding in the Northern Sierra, Robinson Crusoe, The Life of Pi.

Heroes:

Anyone who has: 1-Ran with the Bulls (or nudes) in Pamplona 2-Swam with Great Whites on purpose 3-Been on every continent (or even just to one of the poles) 4-Led an arduous 3rd world life deficient of basic human needs and still managed to have an ironical laugh at life 5-Seen Earth from Outer Space 6-Been higher than 20,000ft without a plane or drugs 7-Risen from the dead.
