Good luck Shannon. May God watch over you and your unit as you are deployed.

my unit is out already... their in Charleston, SC.... I'm just joining soon for the rest of the deployment... I've pretty much felt ripped... people want me here... others need me there! Sheesh.

Thanks for your hopes and prayers... hopefully, I can find an internet terminal somewhere over yonder... otherwise its the old fashion snail mail

Seems like only yesterday that you were starting college. I have so much respect for you. It has been such a privilege to watch you grow and mature. Now you're going out to protect me, my family and our Storm2k friends. God Bless you. Please be careful and as Poppysky said, look up at Orion and know that we are all thinking of you and praying for you.

Just look up at Orion...and there we will be!

Poppysky, ironically, my dad taught me to look at Orion every night... Yes, I know that Orion is the 'hunter' but, personally, it means someone who will find the courage to push himself (in my case herself) through the obstacles that lie ahead. Doing this every night makes me see my struggles and they struggles 'hunters' face in their life. A diamond in the rough can be found in moments that one would never think would happen. Its kind of like the 'pot of gold' you know the rainbow ends somewhere, but you don't know where...you can never find that 'pot of gold'... you have to work to reach that goal and life is never easy... just take what you can and cherish what you have around you.

Going to be a little hard to look at Orion for a while since it's too close to the Sun in the sky to be visible-will reappear in the dawn sky in August.

thanks for reminding me... Orion is visible in the summer time, but is hard to see.... otherwise, I don't have a problem looking for Orion.
