 What are your hobbies/interests?
 
I have enjoyed duck hunting, crappie fishing, and golfing most of my life.
 
As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?
 
I always wanted to be an architect.  Then I discovered that I couldn't draw a straight line with a ruler.   
 
What's your motto in life?
 
"Live and learn, Die and forget it all" (Borrowed from my Great Grandmother)
 
Beach or mountains?
 
Mountains.  
 
Tell us about your first date.
 
When I was a sophomore in high school, I asked a freshman on the tennis team if she wanted to get ice cream at Baskin-Robbins after school.  I had just gotten my drivers license, so we drove to get ice cream and I brought her back to Texas High where her mom was waiting to pick her up from school.  7 years later, we were married and now have two of the best kids in the world.  
 
What is a fun experience you have had recently?
 
Just this past Sunday I went whitewater kayaking with a friend of mine on the Cossatot River.  
 
If you could replay a fun or big moment in your life, what would you choose?
 
I would have to say my wedding day.  Everything happened so quickly that I don't remember most of it.
