He is busy working. Part of how it relates to his life is how he even came about deciding to do it. Sort of like growing up not being able to have everything you want, but working for what you do want and finding creative ways to get it. He plays sports, always wants expensive equipment, has sort of learned a barter system etc. Wanted a boat. Worked hard and asked and asked me… searched for boats on sale, since he could not figure out a way to pay for it, found another alternative. He is passionate about it. I would rather have him write about his experience mentoring and volunteering with disable kids and adults in an adaptive skate program he works at since he is also passionate aobut hockey, but right now he is more passionate about the boat.

He did mention it to an interviewer the other day at a college interview and the interviewer thought it was really cool.
