Just for fun

There is nothing like eating at a favorite restaurant with the family, my foursome.  Traveling, photography, camping and fly-fishing round out the fun things that make leisure time memorable.  From out west to Boston, from the mountains to the beach and from urban settings to sailing, we have a blast.  Close to home, there’s nothing better than camping at JFK Park on the Little Red River, Arkansas.  Of course, with the four-legged buds Dixon, Dawg and Crispin.
