Labrador Retrievers - I've owned six labs over the years (all colors), but I'm partial to the chocolate lab.  I enjoy playing and hunting with my dogs; they're still learning to retrieve grouse, it's a work in progress. 

 Technology for Physical Educators - One of the courses I teach is Technology for Physical Educators; because technology is always developing I stay busy learning how to make use of new applications in physical education.  I have created and maintain the UMPI physical education  web site which includes a digital video collection; a resource that physical education teachers can use  when they need performance models for sport skills, dance activities, and for promoting physical activity.
