End of Summer and a short trip to Korea



Well, the end of the summer has been busy here. We have not been idle. Carolyn and Meghan have added T-Ball to their list of activities. Carolyn has proven to be a quick fielder and Meghan can swing a mean bat! The coaches are great; they really know how to get kids involved and keep them motivated. That is no easy task, particularly since the temps have been running in the 90's with high humidity. I was lucky to be home for the two games played so far and was able to assist the coaches a little. It was a lot of fun. Next Carolyn and Meghan will start piano. We will approach it the same way, keep it fun, see if they like it. Ella will be attending a pre-school three days a week and still hitting gymnastics.





As for work, well, I took a short two week trip to Pusan Korea. Nice place-fish lovers dream. Though some of the live catch could be nightmarish. I spent 90% of my time on the USS Blue Ridge the Flagship of the Pacific Fleet, the ship is in good shape despite its age, old for a warship at 39. Some of you may recognize the first class accommodations from the photos.







Erica and the ladies of the North Island Officers Spouses Club painted the town red on Friday belting out all the greatest hits and washing them down with a few Orions.








Carolyn all smiles after her first SOLO bike ride! All smiles minus the front tooth of course.

Where's my root beer!











All better now.
