Road Trip

Tomorrow morning, I am leaving for Arkansas to visit Josh, Sabrina, and Aaron. Unfortunately, this will be my first and only road trip for the summer. I know a lot of people don't like to take long road trips and be by themselves, but I look forward to the open road (12 hours) for some time away. I get to listen to some good music and just think about somethings.

I do look forward to seeing my buddies this weekend and hopefully seeing a Mae concert with them; Joel always talks about how good they are, so now I get to experience it myself.

Silver Star Award Ceremony

Last Sunday, Lima Company had a ceremony to award two Silver Stars to two Marines in Lima Company; one in person and the other posthumously. The Silver Star is the US military’s third highest for military valor and the highest that any Marine in Lima Company has received. I know both the men who received the awards and would like to let my readers out there to read the story in the Columbus Dispatch:
