How I find Equilibrium: Enjoying any activity in our beautiful outdoors – rock climbing, running, hiking, jumping in lakes, skiing, dirt biking, and observing and feeling grateful for my mountain scenery. I value the time and space to read, cook, be involved in my community, stay engaged in current events, and spend quality time with my partner, family, and friends.
