Nature is truly his happy place- it gives him the ability to pay attention while lowering his anxiety and enjoying life without stress free and free of stigma! He needs his green time everyday no matter the weather.
Striped bass! Because they are his favorite food. We fish as a family. Then make fresh striper cakes for dinner.
The better question is what is not! In the warm weather he can be found fishing offshore or lake side for fresh water fishing. Packing up his bike and traitor to catch blue claw crabs for dinner. Collecting his camping gear for a hike or a tree climb. Grabbing his lifejacket for a sail in his Opti. Can't forget kayaking and clamming. In the colder months his favorite is Ice Boating, it's a need for speed! After that would be fish fishing and snowboarding.
