What the heck..where's the time gone? Just a few notes to anyone who reads this--- if you do please leave a note. Ten things that have been going on in my life.

1. Brandon and I went to Italy in April. Went with a great group of people and visited Rome (coloseum, Forum, Trevi fountain) Vatican City(saw St. PEter's, Il Papa- the pope- for Easter blessing), Florence (David, Duomo), Venice (canals, gondola ride), Assisi (St Francis Basilica), Pompei (entire city). Yes- all that in 8 days. Also visited Autogrille about a dozen times!
2. Portugal is going ahead in the World Cup... first time in 40 years... Ya Portugali.
3. How about those Detroit Tigers? Best team in baseball.
4. Our 22nd wedding anniversary.
5. Good Friend retired from USN after 30 years. I was a sideboy.
6. I'll start moonlighting in a private practice starting this week.
7. Erin graduates this coming Wednesday
8. Went to Breakers Beach. Boogie boarded and got sunburned.
9. Took and passed my last Physical Readiness Test (PRT). Yes in 21 years of active duty service. Took at least 2 PRTs each year. Passed them all and never missed one!
10. Stood my last Uniform inspection.

That's it until next time.

6. Try buying a good quality electric frying pan... does anyone know of a good one?
5. Did anyone watch the hurt that MSU put on Iowa this Saturday? I caught the final score...go Green!
4. What is the deal with the new lines head coach? Anyone think he can win in Motown?
