About Us
He makes sure the boys are on track with their goals and keeps the bike tires aired up and the chains greased. He likes to travel internationally with his two wheels and doesn't mind making new friends along the way, especially with WarmShowers hosts.

There's a mommy who loves a bowl of yogurt with coconut and dark chocolate and especially enjoys riding both her road bike and her mountain bike. She has spent the last eighteen years either teaching her own kids or a classroom full of little ones, but has recently decided to embark on new adventures [think: airplanes]. She survives the winter months snowshoeing and skiing, but comes alive when spring melts the snow and clears off the bike trails.
She's the one who would most like to be permanently traveling, on trains, planes, scooters...exploring and taking pictures of everything she sees. She greatly enjoys traveling internationally and has been blessed with opportunities to raise awareness about humanitarian work in Ethiopia, Guyana, Haiti, and Greece. She posts travel content at nearandfar.us and can be reached at peteandbuzz{at}gmail{dot}com.

There's a seventeen-year-old who plays the piano by ear and writes music using FL Studio. He loves vintage computers and sound equipment. He has lined our house with Christmas lights and synced everything with music for the best show in town, is often found soldering circuit boards, and is getting really skilled with videography and web design. He's a senior at the running start program at our community college, and soon will have to figure out where to finish his Bachelors in Electrical Engineering! Hopefully, he'll find a fantastic job where he can keep doing all the things he loves.
He hasn't wanted to get his driver's permit yet, but is loving his e-bike and the freedom that affords. He works as a camera operator at our local hockey ice rink, following the puck around! He also loves photography and would probably hike more often if he had friends willing to go with him...

There's a fifteen-year-old who skis with reckless abandon. His biggest passion at the moment is flying remote control airplanes and his bedroom looks like an RC museum! He and his best friend spend a lot of time over at the RC field, wowing everyone with their skills. He wants to be a pilot when he grows up and is so grateful to be getting flying lessons this year! Taking online classes for his 10th grade year is offering a lot of flexibility for the ways he would like to spend his time.
He would eat mommy's deluxe bowl of yogurt three times a day if he could. He loves to swim in our backyard pool as often as possible, playing the "quiet game" which is essentially a more stealthy version of Marco Polo. If he's not flying an RC plane, or the Luscombe, then he's probably on the computer using a flight simulator. This kid has probably watched every episode of Hogan's Heroes and the Cosby Show, and multiple times!
