Cars are something I've always enjoyed...more HP the better. Working out is always something I enjoy. Walks with my family down the ocean and spending time on the boat with friends and family.

(Angel, Gary's other bulldog, pictured left, is more concerned about looks than function. She just can't take her eyes off of that baby blue.)
