Overview
About Me
I'm a newspaper editor in Rice Lake, Wisconsin. When I'm not working, I'm usually outside. I have a kind of clever, mostly silly sense of humor. I like good beer and good food, especially cheese.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Save money and connect with other people, obviously! Couchsurfers have shown me great generosity during my travels, and I want to pass on that generosity.
Interests
Mountain biking is my favorite activity, followed closely by cross country skiing. I also do quite a bit of paddling, hiking, showshoeing, camping and other outdoor pursuits. I love cards and board games

Music, Movies, and Books
I like indie pop/rock, jazz and bluegrass music. I don't watch many movies, but when I do it has to be heavy, deep drama or something outrageously awful. I read many works of non-fiction.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I recently biked the Tuscobia Ultra Race in snow and rain from Park Falls to Rice Lake, Wisconsin. It was part miserable, part fun, epic and a bit surreal.
Teach, Learn, Share
I brew beer and make maple syrup and have plenty to share.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'd be happy to cook a meal for you if given access to a kitchen and cooking wares.
