About Me

Nosmelone
I am a father of 4 and I am happily married to my beautiful wife. I served my mission in Louisville Kentucky and have since lived in Utah and Arizona. I love the scriptures (standard works) and love to study ancient cultures with a focus on the Mayans, Aztecs and the indigenous of the American Southwest (Hopi, Zuni, Navajo and Hohokam).
