I'm on deployment in the US Navy and won't be back until further notice. I won't be able to write back until then. Thanks for stopping by.

I'm not a return missionary, not as active as I could be, don't have a calling, and I'm certainly not perfect. In the last few years I've learned a little about adversity, sacrifice, being persecuted and mocked for my beliefs, and a lot about myself. Never married, no kids. I am a family man, they are great examples to me and I love them very much. I am in a strange living situation with my job, ask me if you really want to know. My job occupies a lot of my time. I feel very blessed. My family is one of my motivations and I work hard to make them proud every day. I'm a pretty conservative guy. I love being warm and sunshine. I like to hike, drive, and explore new places. I like fast cars, auto racing, college basketball and the Duke Blue Devils men's basketball team. I haven't done a lot of crazy things in my life. I'm not a city boy, nor a country boy. Didn't grow up with a lot of money. Never got into snowboarding, golfing, skiing, boating, wake boarding, hunting, shooting, four-wheeling, camping, video games, I just didn't grow up with any of that. I think I'm pretty funny. When I first meet people, I often try to make them laugh, then we have something in common. I love looking at architecture, art, landscaping, and nature. Part of the exploring I do is looking for things, like that stuff, that inspire me. I love food, it's also an expression of creativity. My generation inspires me. We accomplish and achieve and find and do the most amazing things every day. I guess this is just a glimpse, but I hope you enjoyed learning a little about me. My name is Andrew.
