I must have overlooked something, but once again I see no comments posted. What is wrong with you people, this is not a one way conversation. We want to here from you too! Send us some comments or we will stop posting to the blog. Oh Wait, maybe that is what you are hoping for?!*?

Coach, I just found out about your blog via Jody via Facebook. I am very excited to hear that you and your lovely wife are on an extended adventure in Bolivia. Since I successfully completed your English class: Learned to fly, then learned to fly helicopters. Met Sheli, fell in love, got married had my daughter. Lived in Norfolk, VA flew all over the Atlantic and Mediterranean. Moved to Pensacola, FL taught people to fly Helos and had my son. Moved the family to Guam. Flew all over Western Pacific, Indian Ocean, and Arabian Sea. Kids start school. Son is unable to stand wearing shoes for years after Guam. Moved to New Orleans, LA and started flying planes, medium and large. Flew all over the world. Sheli and I buy an enormous house in horrible condition in a great neighborhood. She spends 3 years totally gutting and remodeling it. Comes out amazing and the proceeds from the house allow us to buy in Thousand Oaks, CA. Kids getting bigger and have been in too many schools. Stationed at Pt Mugu, CA flying Hercs, C-130s, for a weapons test squadron. Cool job! Settle into life of surfing, flying, and trying to enjoy SoCal without really becoming a Califorian. Last year I transferred from the weapons test squadron back to a logistics squadron on the same base. Now I am flying all over the world again. In fact, I just went on a trip which went around the world. My wife is writing. She is new to it, but has had a few things published in magazines. My daughter is a sophomore and is swimming and playing water polo. My son is your standard 12 year old boy. My Navy ride ends in 4 months. It has been great, but I'm looking forward to a change. I am looking for a job. My Navy retirement will be nice but not that nice. And that cover the last 19 years.
I had the chance to spend a little time in Bolivia before Evo took office and I loved it. I am looking forward to reading through your Blog. Take care Coach.

In defense of all your non-posting friends, let it be said that I looked faithfully for a few days, saw nothing new, and didn't look for awhile. Little did I know that suddenly there was a posting frenzy!! I enjoyed every one of them, especially where your stories don't seem to be the same!! If you two are ever accused of a crime and they put you in separate rooms for questioning about what happened, you don't have a chance!! Anyway, I've enjoyed reconnecting with you after these many years, and keep the posts coming. One of my retirement goals is to get rid of my blogophobia and start my own!
seriously, rick is right. nothing new for a long time and the next minute you're Anthony Bourdain. good stuff! keep it coming!
