I'm back baby!!
Howdy folks!
I'm back from Iraq. It's SOOOO good to be back (especially in one piece)!! I ALMOST forgot how much fun my car is to drive!! Here's a sampling of photos from the deployment:

Now it looks like I'll be transferring to Newport, RI in the fall... No more mild Florida winters for me...
Thanks for all the words of support and thoughts while I was gone. I really appreciate it!

We missed you and are very glad you've returned safely. Newports not so bad - great lobster and steamers. I used to hang out at Beavertail lighthouse when I wanted quiet time.
BTW, thank you and all of your fellow service members for your dedication and sacrifice.
