REAL LIFE INTERESTS

Peter and his wife Nancy are both active outdoors people. They are both members of the Northeast 111, having climbed all of the 115 peaks in New York and New England over 4000 feet, [Peter No. 465, Nancy No. 472], including the Adirondack 46 [Peter No. 2606, Nancy No. 2311]. They are also members of the Catskill 3500 Club [Peter No. 376, 448W, Nancy No. 1280, 532W].

Peter and Nancy have hiked, climbed and canyoneered throughout the United States. They frequently spend Christmas vacations in the desert southwest, usually at Joshua Tree National Park. In 1994, they led a small party to the summit of the Grand Teton in Wyoming. Locally, Peter has led a number of ambitious trips for the Albany Chapter of the Adirondack Mountain Club, including climbs of rarely visited Adirondack slides.

Peter is also a competitive runner; usually running in 4 or 5 races per year, including the Mt. Greylock Half-Marathon Trail Race, the Prospect Mountain Run, and the New Scotland Town Run. (The picture is from the finish line of the 2007 Hairy Gorilla Half Marathon).

Tournament chess and karate have been important parts of Peter's background and have helped him develop the attitude and mental discipline necessary to be a successful attorney. Peter holds an international rating from FIDE. He hopes to regain his former United States Chess Federation expert rating in 2010. Peter was awarded a black belt in Shotokan karate in December 2009, and continues to train.
