So we all can pretty much figure out that we enjoy the leaf, but what is it you do to entertain yourself outside of that? (Unless of course all you do is sit in a 68% RH room and ever so slowly rotate all your sticks while continually counting and inventoring them - not that there's anything wrong with that)

Me, I have 3 kids that come to visit a couple times a week. I'm the cubmaster for the youngest one's pack, president of Tripoli Colorado - one of the rocket clubs here in Colorado, and train my fat butt for triathlons.

BTW, my dad's a clown. You may now attempt to fling replies that I may not have heard before. :lol: It's not bad but those road trips as a kid sucked. Small car, all those other people and if it was hot boy did that elephant stink up the place!!

Your dad was a clown, and you went into IT...being in IT I'm not sure your direction was an improvement or not, maybe more related than you first realized!

I have two kids, I'm into soccer and MMA and I read anything put in front of me. My wife and I are getting into golf for something to do together. I also work in IT, as an IT Architect (as I'm sure you've heard me whining about :mrgreen: )

I am the Corporate Director of Food Service for a privately owned management company that owns and contracts juvenile facilities for males and females aged 8-18 in CO, AZ, CA and NV. I write the food service policies, procedures and menus, in addition I travel to each facility to train the staff. Been with the company since 91'. My only hobbies outside of work are Cigars for the Troops, good cigars, good beer, good food, good Scotch and good Bourbon. I like a good root beer as well, the old lady thinks I’m nuts but I'm having a great time. :mrgreen:

Architect by day and full time dad in the evenings and weekends! (Two sets of twins ages 2 and 5.) When I have spare time I like to homebrew, drink homebrew and play volleyball. Haven't played much lately, but I do referee every Sunday.

Welcome, where do you do your RC aircraft at? There is a group out by the Aurora Reservoir that uses the facility I work at for meetings and supports our students .

I know exactly where that is... I live in Fort Fun for the next few months. Been here for 27 years and felt like it's time to pack up and head south a bit to join the boys in Denver. :mrgreen:
