Back Home

I realize I haven't been doing much in the way of updating since I've been back home. I will do my best to correct this sad state of affairs. :)

As I've been back, gotten back to my job - and been able to enjoy the company of my children and my family - life is good.

I have been on vacation - courtesy of the USO - been back to 'drill' (which is what we refer to as our National Guard weekend work, our one weekend a month) a few times now, and even been able to see my replacement come back home. Or at least to the Peoria Airport (a wonderful sight - let me tell you).

I will get around to comleting those few posts that I have on 'hold' - to talk about the boxes from my mates at State Farm - the mission we went on to the girls school that was about 1/2 hour outside of Kabul, and the journey home . . . very soon.

I have about 2000 pictures to go through from my travels, and I'd like to get them in some kind of book or something. . . so many things to do.

Thanks to everyone who has been reading this. If you wouldn't mind - leave me a comment - or send an email. It doesn't seem like there are that many of you. :)

Oh - and get out there and vote. Even if you don't agree with my choice for POTUS - make yours known. This ain't a political blog. . . so, I'll leave it at that. But use your rights! That's what we are fighting for!
