On the Skykomish River
Well, it has been a while since my last post. Some of you already know this, but it may be news for the rest of you. After lots of soul searching, Jeannette and I have decided to continue our Naval service for a while. I had gone as far as getting my retirement approved for October 1st of this year, but never quite felt settled with the decision. After a little bit of arm twisting, I was allowed to stay in and will be moving on to be an Executive Officer on the USS Bremerton (stationed in Pearl Harbor). It will be my first assignment in Hawaii and it will a bit lonesome as Jeannette and the kids will not initially move out with me.
We really feel it is important for Melissa to be able to finish high school here where she has such a good start and great friends. Looks like a few frequent flyer miles in our future.
Our summer is kicking into high gear now that the kids are out of school and the weather is warming up. We have a family vacation planned out to Yellowstone and Mt Rushmore in July, friends Sherry & Charlie coming up for a visit in August and my last month at my current assignment in September. Also in September is a motorcycle trip out to Glacier with a few friends. Busy, busy.
Take care and more to follow.
