Hiking, camping, most sports

My wife and I like to explore different trails in the area. We have camped since about 1995. The last 11 years were in a seasonal spot, but have brought trailer closer to home now. I like watching hockey, baseball, football. Played and coached hockey for many years, but now just a spectator.
