On my way

My sojourn has begun.

Though I am caught betwixt my family's "here" and my deployment "there," the persistent uncertainty doesn't bother me. The same cannot be said about my departure from home. It was terrible. I am supposed to be an experienced deployer, having gone through the gambit of spending months away from home in service to the Country. That experience--if it exists--is not germane to the arduous process of simply saying goodbye.

Danette, McK, M3, and my little H-man: I miss you all a lot, and pray the days pass quickly between now and November.

Friends and Family: I thank you for your support to my family I've left behind. I look forward to seeing you all again soon.

Note: My goal is to update this blog every couple of days, but time will tell how that works out. Please check it often, and I'll do my part to update these pages as timely as I can.

God bless you, and the United States of America.
