Retired 10 yrs. ago from 30 yrs. as a social worker/bureaucrat for the State Of Michigan. Moved to Minneapolis to be near grand children. Wife & I play a lot of tennis. She makes quilts & does log arm machine quilting commercially. Started playing banjo in the 60's. Had a Seeger model Vega & was a Pete Seeger clone. Don't play in public any more. I make block rims and the occasional whole banjo. Recently got back into guitar building. Putting the finish on my 3rd guitar and have the pieces/parts for a 4th to be built this winter when we go to Harlingen, TX for the winter. Two daughters, three grand children, two cats, and one wife.
