Andy, It was a pleasure to meet you in person, I have admired work for a long time.  Thanks for signing my call before the auction.  Continued success in your call making, they are something else.

Saw your calls but missed meeting you.  The calls looked fantastic.   I do like that curly Koa.

Andy I really enjoyed meeting you and chatting a bit about your work.  You have to be one of the most creative builders I have ever met!  Just love your approach and style...like a moving target, it keeps shifting and evolving, keeping us wondering what you might do next--fresh and inspiring--thanks for sharing!  Scott
