Here are things I do for fun, travels and misadventures..

mixed martial arts fighting. I have started working out again. This is from when I would fight at Joes Sports Bar on their open fight nights. I was the house fighter and fighter of the month for the two months they did it. It was mixed boxing, kickboxing or grappling. I am slowly getting back into shape.

A recent workout at the
WuShu and SanShou Training School I go to in Evanston. Its a real open venue and a damn good group of people to
party with.

I used to race, mostly Rally Cross (above), but also ice, snow, and track events as well. My car has been beaten within an inch of its life with my driving and racing so need to upgrade before starting to race again.
Last year I took my little brother to his first (!) Cubs game, a perfect day, sunny warm, we won, beer and dogs.
Trip to Bay Area, SF and Nappa County..
View from the hotel room in Cozumel.. It is a beautiful and relaxing place..

We went in a submarine, 100ft below the water to find Nemo..

Just about to pass the 100ft mark..

Ruins on the mainland were interesting.

Drinks at the end of the day on the beach are what its really about.
Genevieve singing for Dans and my birthday, she did some James Bond songs for me.. It was great.

Went to another Cubs game this year..

New York is not a healthy place for trees, this was in Central Park.. odd

One of the guys from the school fighting at Joes. I may get back in the ring eventually..

LCD Soundsystem at Lallloopalloozer.. Them and Daft Punk were amazing..

The view from inside Soldier Field is not as good since they landed the space ship..
Welcome to Switzerland..

The view from the patio at the hotel in the mountains..
Michelle looked amazing for Dan and Genevieves wedding..

Opera Moda singing as Genevieve arrives on a gondola..

Gen walking up from the dock..

The most wonderfull people becoming husband and wife..

The food was as good as the setting..

Decor was beautiful but paled in comparison to the crowd.
