Home Again

Fort living room never looked so good.

Home from 15 months in the sandbox, more than happy to be home. Thanks for all the support while I've been away.

Next stop, SFAS.

Will keep you posted on progress.

Cheers,

Mick

Welcome Back

Fill up on some good food, a drink or two and relax with the family.

Just in time for March Madness.

Welcome home!! Glad ya made it back safe.

Good luck in SFAS.

'Hearts and Minds' relates to selection as well. If it's not in your heart, your mind won't let you make it through. SFAS is not physically demanding for those who are ready, the heart has to be ready, also.

Again..welcome home!!
