I love all kinds of animals, but especially dogs. I enjoy all kinds of music, though I'm not particularly fond of country or most current pop music. I kind of take pride in finding obscure artists. I'm a lifelong environmentalist, and I try to keep informed of the developments in environmental science. I'm a dedicated liberal, and I really dislike American politics for the most part... it feels like I'm choosing the lesser of two evils every time I vote. I really have enjoyed travelling the last few years, but my favorite place to go will always be the Rocky Mountains.
