Blog Creation

Today is 3 February 2012.  In 8 days I fly out of SEATAC airport to begin my 5 day training course in Indianapolis.  On 17 Feb I'll be flying via military aircraft to Kuwait and a couple of days later to my destination in Afghanistan.  Hopefully I'll be able to find the time and commitment to post regularly.  Most of my updates will be mobile uploads for the first week.  After that I'm not sure what my net access will be like.  The plan is to purchase a laptop by sometime in April, so unless I can get consistent access to the site from elsewhere, there might be a gap in updates between late Feb and sometime in April.

Feel free to follow along, comment and email me.  I've never been away from my boys for long and maybe this avenue will provide me a way to tell them how much I'm thinking about them while also helping them feel a link to me across the geographical gap.  I'm both nervous and excited about this opportunity.  Though I have little idea what to expect from the time I leave here.

I expect that some days over there will be better than others.  Therefore, in the event this blog ever gets used as a venting session of my frustrations, please forgive the content if it becomes less than P.C.
