Saturday morning:)

Woke up at seven today. Instantly questioned why I was up so early on a saturday! I guess that is sleeping in when I wake up at 5 on the usual weekday. Went to breakfast at the chowhall by myself. Most people were sleeping still. Had a yummy omelete, grape juice, and coffee. Came back into my room after and found my roommate sound asleep listening to the same song on repeat. I now know the song word for word. HAHA. Eventually she woke up and turned it off. Talked to my big brother matt on the phone last night! Back in the states! SO proud of him! :)   Plans for a girls day today with Sheena and Alyssa:) And Dorthea comes back from leave today:D She got to see her man that just graduated boot camp yesterday! Can't believe its been a year since I was graduating bootcamp! Time flys! Hope you all are having a good weekend!:)

Me and sheena a while back:)

I was out a couple weeks ago by a pier. There were some little kids playing in the sand. Cute little baby size footprint next to the big one :)

This one is a bolt on the wood with some cool coloring around it. The people that have looked at it were so confused as to what it was. lol. I thought it looked pretty cool though;)

Under the pier. All  the nasty barnicles on the bottom

The starfish and barnicles on the bottom of a pillar

I omitted the "no" :D

Seaweed hanging from the pier

wow its been a minute!

Hello everyone! I haven't posted on here in quite awhile. I was lacking computer internet access for awhile. Kinda hard to write a lot on just my phone. haha. I am at my new squadron. Pretty sure I haven't posted about it at all. I've been here since September 6th! Its tough, not training anymore. Its a job now, with the military lifestyle mixed in. Being the new guy on the jobs stinks, but thats part of it. We have to earn respect from the other people of higher rank that work there! It's stressfull, 10-12 hour days. I am always ready to crash in bed by the end of the day!! I also have car trouble on top of that. Stupid vehicles. Just like cars, our helicopters have things that need to get fixed everyday! I'd have to say it's pretty cool when we get to be right out there with the turning birds tho. (helicopters that are preparing for takeoff) We get to be out there when they are going out, coming in. Etc. I remember back home, when like once every 2 years we'd see a helicopter go by and be all amazed. Now, just in my squadron we have about 20 of them, and they are coming in and going out all day! :) I'm not sure that I am going to make it home for the holidays, because of the costs of car repairs. Cross my fingers tho! Missing everyone, and the good old UP!! :)
