I took a trip that started in Tacoma, Washington that ended in San Antonio, Texas. While on the road I took some video and some photos. I made stops in Boise, at Arches National Park, Mesa Verde National Park, and Carlsbad Caverns. The photos are in order – the video does it much more [...]

We’ve hardly had any real downtime since I’ve been home and it isn’t a bad thing. We’ve been busy hanging out with the extended family, attending weddings, playing with the dogs, cleaning the house, and we’ve been having a great time doing all of that. We won’t have any slow days until sometime next [...]

Travel has officially begun. I’ve been awake for 6 hours and I have a few more hours before my show time. I looked at the flight board and it looks like I am going to wait for 5-6 hours after my show time.

The replacements are here and the pass-on has been completed. The new guy doesn’t have any of his worker bees yet but I can’t do anything about that. If all goes to plan – and there is no plan – I’ll be home within the next 14 days. Isn’t that an overly broad swath [...]

A few days ago I left on another trip and to be the “fixer.” We did what we had to and I put some stuff on a pallet. We thought that we were going to get out today but it wasn’t meant to be. I’m stuck here for yet another day but at least [...]

I’ve traveled on a C130 and a C17 and numerous other civilian aircraft. All of them have had one thing in common: fixed wings. Recently I took a trip on a Black-hawk Helo and it was awesome. I had to travel to another base to inspect some stuff and we found it was far [...]

I’ve done a little bit of traveling in the past few days and I’ve got one more leg of the trip before its all over and I reach my final destination. Since I was here last, wifi has propogated across almost everywhere that I’ve been. If I’ve turned my laptop on and accessed my [...]

It’s that time once again. I’m set to get on a plane and travel half way across the planet away from everyone that I know and love.
I’m headed to Iraq for another 4 month stint in what should be a relatively easy trip. I’ve got my bags packed and this time my [...]
