I don't usually wear a hat. In the Boundary Waters, however, anything goes. As for the smirk, it says, "Yeah, that's right. I'm here and you're probably at work." Well I'm no longer there, and I'm back at work. So much for that smirk.

My Jolene. My wife, my life. We've been together for 15 years, and it hasn't been the "5 minutes (under water)" that I sometimes joke about. In fact, it's been a lifetime in an instant. I can't imagine me and not her.

Evan Michael. My sweet boy. Every day he changes, and every day he makes me proud to be a father. I'm crazy about that little guy.

Adrien Elinor. Our second little angel. She's every bit as sweet as Evan, but she's her own little person. Momma gets to do more clothes shopping now.

My brothers, Jesse and Matt. I am them with more of this and less of that. They are me with more of that and less of this. Both were married last year, and Matt's had a little girl since then. Click on them for more.

Mom and Dad. They're what any kid would hope for, with a few, umm, eccentricities, we'll say. Matt and I are joining their business now, so we're learning to work together. It's a challenge, but that's ok.
