Hobbies & Interests

Aside from spending time with her family Sarah enjoys gardening.  In addition, Sarah keeps tropical fish. Her time has increased on this hobby. Originally the plan was for her children to become involved. As is often the case, the idea of cleaning them out was less than appealing!
