Small Mouth Bass, Northern, Large Mouth Bass, Sunnies, Crappies, Muskie and Walleye. Hunting - I do some bird hunting but I enjoy time in the deer stand with my kids. I was there when my son shot his first deer and love it when my daughter and I spend the day together in our deer stand. Scuba Diving - from diving the Crosby Mines to Cozumel, It is something that really is relaxing for me. Volunteering - as a family we volunteer between 200 to 500 hours a year, from serving meals in Minneapolis to the food shelf in Braham. Taking kids fishing to soccer coach in Pine City. It is what we do and who we are. Project Cozumel - each Spring a bunch of divers and friends from a church in Rochester go down to Cozumel where we put concrete roofs on homes being rebuilt as a result of hurricane Wilma in 2005. To date we have replaced 6 roofs and worked on many other homes. Working at the Retreat Center - there is always something to do. Climbing in my skid steer and pushing dirt to siding a cabin, I love to spend time with the kids working on projects.
