Kuwait

Well, its official now I'm in the sandbox. The flight wasnt bad, only took us around 14 hours and pretty comfy on the plane too. Right now I am in Kuwait just making some final preprations and some training before I head out. It was Turkey day today, and well I will give the Army credit for trying. No, really it wasnt bad, turkey was kinda dry but the ham was good, but what can I say Thanksgiving without spiked eggnog, beer, and football just doesnt seem right. I have other things to think about than that fun stuff right now, so it really doesnt bother me, its the thought that counts. I dont plan on doing too much for the big day, I guess I am really starting to get old when you really dont get excited about moving on to the next age. Who knows maybe it's the location, or the age, or just a little bit of both I guess I'll find out next year...that is if I'm back by then. I hope everyone has a great day!
Love ya all

I have left the US everyone, training at fort dix was interesting it had its good points and bad, but now its time for the big show. I am sitting in Ireland right now, one of our few stops to refuel on the way to the sandbox. As soon as I have an address I will get that out to everyone, and if I need anything I'll let everyone know. Thanks for all of you guy's support, and lets see how this journey plays out.
