A story from an event 2 years ago about the team that I worked with during my last deployment. This is an example of what the men and women of our US Military will do to make sure that everyone makes it home.

Moral High Ground

Today was a day of having to hold my tongue in an attempt to maintain the moral high ground. I am amazingly disappointed by the lack if integrity displayed throughout my place of work.
 
By no means am I perfect. I have never claimed to be. I will loudly proclaim that fact.
 
It is frustrating to work within an organization that claims to live by the Army values yet continues to demonstrate their inability to do so.
 
Rant is over. Thanks for listening. Thanks for tolerating.

Hiking in New Mexico

Danielle and I went hiking this morning before she had to head into work and I had to fly back to SoCal. We took her two dogs with us. They ran up and down the trails like they owned them!
The "food poisoning" was...awful...?

My Alarm Clock

When I woke up this morning Duke was resting every so gently on the pillow next to me. Possibly one of the sweetest moments of his life.

Slumber Party!

While in AFG Danielle and I would get to have movie nights on our "off" nights. It was rare that either one of us actually made it through to the end of the movie before we passed out on our improvised couch.
Danielle thought it would be fun to have a movie night here. And this time we had ice cream! It was awesome! And I am proud to announce that we made it through the movie without sleeping!

One More Day with Kristi's Class


Dangerous with Caution Tape

If you give me caution tape and instructions to "put it wherever you want", you had better be prepared for me to do just that. Kristi's class is studying the life cycle of frogs and each student got to make a clay frog. Um, I cannot confirm or deny whether I placed a caution tape bow on Kristi's frog. Just ignore the picture. There is nothing to see in the picture.
