Ahh, exotic Fort Campbell, Kentucky. Or Tennessee. They had some trouble figuring that out when the base was brought online prior to World War II. Ft. Campbell was home to several heavy armor divisions during that time. Aside from that there are some really cool (and one wierd) looking aircraft just sitting around at the museum. Pictures to follow.

My unit is a Cavalry unit. It has maybe 200 people in it, if that. Also, if the title isn’t clear enough, I now have internets in my room. It’s kind fo disturbing really. I woke up this morning and went to PT and then came back, changed into ACU’s and went and ate some mediocre chow at our above average chow hall. All during that time there were no internets. When I got back from chow they were all over the place.

Beyond the internets and obviously interesting history: I’ve been driving to Huntsville, Alabama on the weekends. This weekend is a four day so I’m thinking of going to see some of the local sights (caves and stuff-not nearly as interesting as old aircraft; it’s not like you can fly a cave around).

Also-I’m reading through “Purpose Driven Life” by Rick Warren. I don’t agree with a lot of stuff he has done, but I was assured by a good friend of mine who knows these things that the book is one of the more concise compilations concerning purpose as related to Christianity.

PT here is hard but easy. It’s difficult, but there are so many people good at it that is becomes easy to push harder and farther. It motivates a person to excel when they are the only person not.

I love you Mom! Happy Mother’s day! I left a message on your answering machine. I hope you got it. I love you Dad! I’m praying for your knee. I love you gramma and grampa!

(Brother, sister, I love you both. Uncles, cousins (Natalie, welcome home), etc. I hope you are all well!)

Also, Tim: answer my phone calls. Meagen: Sushi, yes? I’m looking forward to it!
