I miss going to the many different parks in Northern California (Berkeley to be exact) and flying a kite.

I miss seeing some of those fantastic, highly detailed and ornate kites that probably cost the owners a bundle, flying majestically in the clear, blue skies.

As Archie and Edith would sing, "Those were the days!"


Oh yes, and frisby!!!

I used to have a huge interest in classic cars. I guess getting married and having a kid, kind of prioritizes where your money goes.

I used to ski a ton, but don't really anymore. The things I still do are hike, fish and camp.

One day, I will have my 66 Chevelle, with a stroked 396!!!

Gave up on modifing cars when I was in college, too costly and too many speeding tickets.
Gave up on video games in college, time to grow up and be more productive.
Gave up on playing the guitar in high school, sports and girls took too much time.
Gave up on giving up and instead giving more to the less fortunate this year.
