Our
Interests
As almost everyone these days, our family is busy. We're either going somewhere,
coming back from somewhere, or doing something somewhere. But when we do
have time, here's what we enjoy:
Old cars/tractors
We like old cars. We're talking about OLD cars, especially cars made in
the 50s, 60s, and 70's--the cars with personalities! We enjoy going to
car shows too. We currently have a turquoise 63 Ford Falcon Ventura 4-door
and 3 AMC/Rambler Marlins--one '66 and two '65s. Unfortunately we wrecked
one of the '65s. We now plan to use it as a parts car. Don't know what
a Marlin is? It's
a car in a category all by itself. Check it out!
We also have an old Oliver tractor that belonged to a family member.
We aren't farmers, so we use it for tractor rides.
Church
activities
Our Christian
faith plays a very important role in our lives. In spite of the normal
activities of a busy family (or maybe because of it), we still find time
to be involved in our local church. Selena sings in the choir, and we both
help teach preschool children once a month and are actively involved in
our Sunday School class. Selena also desktop publishes the class newsletter
weekly.
Astronomy
We are dedicated Star Trek/Star Wars fans. Since we can't go "where no
man has gone before," we decided to bring the universe to us by purchasing
a telescope. Then we took a class to learn what we were seeing through
the telescope. I never knew there was so much stuff out there to look at.
We're still learning and probably always will be.
We are University of Illinois Fighting Illini basketball and football fans.
The Illini are in the Big 10. For more information, see Illini
On-line.
