I love taking landscape photos and showing electronic slideshows. I enjoy traveling around the world and giving my books away or raising money for the local Cancer Society.

Speaking of interviews, you can even find some with world-class figure skaters and coaches. Enjoy! I appreciate feedback (positive or negative).
