Photography

Fuzzy is an avid photographer, and takes pictures of almost everything he sees. For eclipse, meteor, and aurora photos, see Team Toad Astronomy.

Jeeping

Our newest hobby is expedition Jeeping, also known as Overlanding. We have two Wranglers, a 2011 Wrangler Sahara Unlimited, and a 2023 Rubicon EcoDiesel. Our trailer started as an AT Overland Chaser tent trailer. I rebuilt it with a sleeping compartment and call it the Toad Pod™. The build report is on TVenturing.

Last year Debbie and I did the Rubicon Trail in California with Barlow's Adventures August 2023.

This year Fuzzy has been to Canyonlands, Capital Reef, the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, and twice to Big Bend NP.

Ranch

The Lazy Toad Ranch is now located in North Texas, near Mabank.

We currently have 3 horses, 17 cows, 4 dogs, 3 cats, and 13 chickens.

We get involved in all kinds of fun projects, such as Burning Man, Pirate Week, Rennaisance Faire, BattleBots and Stunt Flying.

You can read Fuzzy's FaceBook Page even if you do not have a FaceBook account.

Team Toad

Team Toad is our family's fleet of combat robots.

We competed in BattleBots from 2000 to 2002 (Seasons 2-5). We competed in NERC events and RCG events between 2001 and 2003.

After a haitus from robot combat, we got back into competing at BattleBeach 4, RoboGames 2006 and RoboGames 2008, 2006 RFL Nationals and our latest events Combots 2009 and Robogames 2011.

We're proud to welcome our newest honorary member of Team Toad, SGT Andy Vinh.

Travel

We have several albums in our Travel pages, including trips to Florida for the launches of Atlantis STS-122 and Endeavour STS-123 and STS-126 Japan, the Mediterranean the Caribbean, Europe, Africa, Providenciales and Burning Man 2004.

These days we put most of our travel photos on Fuzzy's Facebook Page.

Robot Club

Get Metal Munching Maniacs, the DVD. This DVD shows the last tournament held at the Robot Club & Grill on May, 2003.

From the Fall of 2002 through the Spring of 2003 we owned and operated the Robot Club & Grille, the world's only permanent robot fighting facility open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner. The club is closed and gone, but the fight record and online store live on.

Data Groupies

Data Groupies was a project by Fuzzy to model the 2020 coronavirus epidemic using the skew-normal distribution. Weekly updates were ended in March 2023.

The Data Groupies Theory Page is basically a conference paper without the conference.

The Contact page lists ways to get in contact with Team Toad.
