About Me
ABOUT ME
I recently moved back to Jacksonville, FL from Gilbert, AZ where I lived for two years. Before finishing school and joining the real world I served for 6 years in the navy which had me living in Chicago, San Diego, and Yokosuka, Japan. After the navy I worked in Tampa building Satellite Communications Equipment, but decided it was time to finish school. I finished and now work for Merrill Lynch.
I kayak around a bit; rivers and some ocean (west coast FL). I enjoy fishing for tarpon in southwest FL. Kayaked a few of FL's rivers as well as the Everglades from Everglades city down to Flamingo (7 day trip). I enjoy just about anything outdoors.
O yeah, my new kick is catching blue crabs in the river.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I can climb palm trees pretty well and I can walk on my hands and pull something out of the freezer with my feet and place it on the counter . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmllBiKOxqw I have also caught Bass using gummy worms (the candy) as bait. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Upb2jy50WPI

Electronics. Boats. Fishing. I love fishing in Southwest Florida. I do some hunting. I'm good with my hands; fixing things/making things work. Just quit a job building Satellite Communications equipment because I need to finish school, which I have now completed.
