In recent not so good times, this has been a wonderful. I love it.

I'm also a pretty much retired Thrash Metal/Punk musician, last played live right before my son was born in 2014.. I'd love to again, but it's really hard to find drummers for that type of music while aren't in 10 bands...

I also spent 6 years working for Special Olympics Mn as a Basketball and Softball coach/instructor. I still work in that field.
