I have lots of hobbies. Unfortunately, due to my travel schedule, I don't have much time to spend with them. I try to play my guitar, mandolin, and banjo as much as I can. But if you've heard me play, you know it's not enough. Fortunately, thanks to the wonderful technology provided by Apple (see I'm a Mac), I can keep Bill Monroe with me on my iPod when I'm on the road.

I still like to photograph using sheet film and a view camera. Nothing is more relaxing than spending a day in the darkroom working with that special image. The results are usually worth the effort.

I play a half dozen rounds of golf each year with my dad. I'm always behind in my reading, and there's always a writing project I would like to start. By the way, did I mention that I like Apple computers?

There is one more thing…Ken Ham and I have an ongoing battle at the cribbage board. Even when he thrashes me, he gives me a nice cup of tea.
