Introduction

I enjoy getting out and taking a nice walk in the woods or parks.

What is your favorite thing to do in the outdoors? (keep it rated PG, your mother might read this)

There's this one spot at Clifty Falls that I go off the trail, take my shoes off and walk through the water barefooted. I always take some time to enjoy my life at that spot. You can hear the waterfalls in the background & life doesn't get any better

Where are you from? (if you've lived lots of places, list them)

Do we really want to go here? How about from birth? Germany Kansas Kentucky South Carolina Maryland Texas Back to Germany Kentucky Back to Germany-you might think I'm lost here? MD-wasn't I just here? Wisconsin Washington Korea Wa Ky

What do you do for a living?

Retired, full time student and Dad

What is your favorite place to hike in the Cincinnati / Tri-State area?

I like hiking around the lake in Sharon Woods.

What is your craziest hiking memory (or "have you ever been chased by a bear")

I'm in the Badlands with my 6 and 3 year old kids. My son (6 years old) starts to run to the beginning of the trail. I laugh and run and catch him right where some people are looking. There's a 500 ft drop with no warning there. Scared? Oh yeah!

  • Hi, David! This is a continuation of the post for the Green River paddle.
    Too funny! My first boat is a Perception Sundance! I paddled over 300 miles the first year in that thing! Still use it for winter paddles/creeks, etc. but I recently purchased Hurricane Santee 126. Am loving it!
    You ought to check out the trip we did last year...it was a summer paddle. The photos are great!

  • Yes this is probably the park. There is a trail to Lunken. Yes I remember the plane too. Spent a lot of time at Lunken. Part of the reason I love planes today!!!!
