I grew up loving sports and being outside.  Nature, camping and outdoor activities consumed my life.  But somewhere along the way I discovered that I loved the world of reading.  On summer days I'd find a cool spot outside and hide from my brothers and sisters (all nine of them) and read.  It usually got me in trouble for slacking on my duties, but I loved the adventures reading took me on.
