After I leave the office for the day, I am a husband of over 40 years to the same lady. We live out in Vernonia with our five dogs (Great Danes to a 4lb Pom), four horses, chickens, and cats. I run with the dogs each morning for about 45 minutes, rain, snow or sunshine. We have two sons. Our oldest served as an ARMY nurse for 9 years and is now working. Our youngest was in the Air Force, received his Electrical Engineering degree, and is working full time. My wife & I are both very proud of both of our sons. They are decent young men with career goals though we're still waiting on grandchildren. It seems I spend a lot of time at Home Depot with minor repairs or remodeling something. Our horses live with us at our home, and we trail riding most weekends. Oregon has many nice spots to camp & ride horses within a few hour drive of Portland Metro. We don’t watch much regular TV except news but we do enjoy movies at home. I can re-watch some of the old classics every month but I enjoy a wide variety of movies. We go out to dinner occasionally with friends and go for a day drive to the coast at least once a month, year round. It is never boring and is actually quite satisfying to help people get home loans. Some loans are easy to get approved but others are quite difficult. There have been a lot that were turned down by other lenders that I was able to get through. When you tell someone they can get the loan they need, whether to buy their dream or to help a financial situation or crisis, they are appreciative. Helping a "First Time Buyer" understand the process and get their first home is very rewarding, too.
