Peter L. Berghold's Web Home

Welcome!

T

his is my personal hang out here on the web. Come on in and sit a spell. You might have to toss a dog out of the chair first but we don't rely on ceremony around here.

Who is this guy?

I

identify myself first as a husband and father (or father and husband) due to the fact that my family means everything to me. My family is the reason I do most things in my life especially things that involve earning a wage. I am a Unix Professional who has been at the game since 1986 or so. I got my start as a Perl programmer around 1989 and have been using the language non stop since.

S

ome organizations I belong to include two dog clubs and the American Legion. The two dog clubs are Bayshore Companion Dog Club and JAG. As luck would have it I was elected to be an officer in both dog clubs as well as the American Legion post I belong to (Post 346).

A

lso I am a very avid cook that cooks in a variety of styles. Barbeque being my favorite style along with cooking chili.

L

et's not rule out the fact as well that I love my dogs. Currently I am owned by seven of them and they are all rescue dogs that came to my household to be fostered and they never moved on. With our dogs, my wife and I participate in a sport called Agility where the dogs have been trained to run in an obstacle course under our guidance for accuracy as well as time.

O

ther interests of mine include fishing for just about anything that swims in the ocean, lake, pond, or stream. I'm also an electronics dabbler and have been since I was 8 years old.

B

rewing beer and making wine are two other interests of mine that I never seem to have time for but keep me interested just the same.

T

here is one interestsof mine that I have no skill in, boat building. That's an unexplored territory for me and given my lack of skill at woodworking my remain so.
