When Dan is not working at the studio, he can most likely be found enjoying their pool in the summer or working on scenic images on his computer in the winter. As a young man, Dan enjoyed motorcycles and Corvettes. Dan & Julia enjoy taking motorcycle rides through the country and seeing the beautiful scenery that Missouri has to offer. However, after their motorcycle accident last year they are contemplating trading the motorcycle in for a classic car. If Dan just find that perfect Corvette covertable, then they can contiune to enjoy the beautiful scenery but on 4 wheels instead of 2!
